Following their co-headlining summer tour with Blondie, Elvis Costello and the Imposters will embark on their own “Just Trust” North American tour this fall.
The trek is not dedicated to Costello’s 1981 LP Trust; instead, as the band explains, “The tour is entitled, ‘Just Trust’ in answer to the musical questions: ‘Will they play my favorite song?,’ or, ‘Are they going to frighten the horses with a lot of excellent songs that are rarely performed?,’ not to mention, ‘Can I expect the hits of yesteryear and those of tomorrow?’ To which we say: Just Trust Elvis Costello and The Imposters.”
The month-long tour opens October 23rd in Charlottesville, Virginia and concludes November 26th in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Check out Costello’s site for ticket information.
Costello was recently awarded an O.B.E. – the title of Officer of the Order of the British Empire – for his “services to music.” “To be honest, I’m pretty tickled to receive this acknowledgement for my ‘Services To Music,’ as it confirms my long held suspicion nobody really listens to the words in songs or the outcome might have been somewhat different,” Costello said in a statement.
