A two-time Grammy Award winner – most recently in 2019 for Look Now – and Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Elvis Costello has been a songwriting partner of Burt Bacharach, Paul McCartney, and Carole King. His songs have been covered by Linda Ronstadt, Diana Krall, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Zucchero, Dave Edmunds, and Chet Baker, as well as spawning at least six tribute albums from other performers.

The catalogue includes songs featured on over 32 studio albums, of which 12 have charted in the UK Top 10. His first three studio albums (released in 1977-79) all appeared in Rolling Stone’s list of “500 Greatest Albums of All Time”.

His catalogue includes timeless classics such as ‘Alison’, ‘Watching The Detectives’, ‘Everyday I Write The Book’, ‘Pump It Up’, and ‘Veronica’.

The enduring strength of his songwriting was demonstrated by the 2021 release of Spanish Model, a reimagining of Costello’s 1978 sophomore album This Year’s Model, with vocals in Spanish by Latin stars including Juanes and Luis Fonsi.
