We’re All Going On A Summer Holiday Tour kicks off this summer

Elvis Costello & The Imposters say We’re All Going On A Summer Holiday with a 23 date tour produced by Live Nation. Commencing on June 7th in Vancouver, BC Canada, the tour includes stops at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles and the Beacon Theatre in New York City. Nick Lowe & Los Straitjackets will open all of the coast-to-coast dates and Charlie Sexton will appear on all dates.

The general on sale begins Friday, March 31st at 10 am local time via Ticketmaster.

Since returning to the road in the summer of 2021, in the guise of Elvis Costello & The Layabouts, E.C. and The Imposters – Steve Nieve, Pete Thomas, Davey Faragher and augmented by Texas guitarist Charlie Sexton – have undertaken three tours in the United States and one in the U.K. and northern Europe. Most recently Costello played the highly-acclaimed “100 Songs and More”, a ten-night engagement at the Gramercy Theater, NYC at which he played more than 230 original songs, repeating only three titles. The shows that began in solo performance went on to spring nightly surprises, involving everything from an ensemble including musical saw, fiddle and Uillean pipes to an eight-person Broadway vocal chorus led by M.D. Rob Mathes, duets with jazz bassist, Endea Owens and, from the halfway point, performing with Steve Nieve at the piano before adding two different horn sections, led by trumpet player and arranger, Michael Leonhart. The stand included guest vocal appearances by Rebecca Lovell, La Marisol and JSWISS and concluded with a more than three hour finale performance with the full band line-up.

The We’re All Going On A Summer Holiday dates will follow two headlining appearances at the Byron Bay Bluesfest in Australia, three nights at the Sydney Opera House and a show at the Palais Theatre in Melbourne. In May, Costello and Steve Nieve will return to the concert hall stage together for the first time in 20 years, in Reykjavik, Iceland. Further dates are planned for later in the year and will be announced shortly.
