New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) Elvis Costello and the Imposters today answer the call of unanimously cheering audiences and critics from coast to coast, announcing a further extension of the massively successful Spinning Songbook tour with a string of fall dates in the Eastern U.S.
Having begun as a brief two-week stint this spring, the Spinning Songbook tour soon expanded to include 17 additional cities in June and July, garnering acclaim at every turn:
- "Unfettered, free-wheeling fun" - Minneapolis Star-Tribune
- "[The Wheel] was the perfect way to shake up a set list with a couple decades' worth of excellent material" - Columbus Dispatch
- "Three hours of hilarity, musicality, and unabated joy" - St. Louis Post-Dispatch
- "It's hard to imagine any other musician in the world playing the show that Elvis Costello did" - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
At each performance, select fans are invited onstage to spin the Wheel, helping to create new sets at each performance from a collection of 40 banners including hits, rarities, and a few surprises.
