Mary Anne hosts a special Key of Life interview with the legendary singer-songwriter Elvis Costello.
Mary Anne Hobbs hosts a special Key of Life interview with Elvis Costello.
In part one of this special conversation, Elvis looks back on his childhood growing up with his father, Birkenhead's first bebop player, and his mother who worked in Liverpool record shops.
He also recalls the first time he ever performed on-stage, how he feels his voice has evolved over the years, and why he loves the "surprise of playing wrong notes".
Elvis Costello's latest LP 'Look Now' will be released on October 12, following on from his 2013 collaborative record with The Roots, 'Wise Up Ghost'.
Part two of the award-winning artist's conversation with Mary Anne will be broadcast on October 7, 2018.
