Elbow's New Album, Live At The Ritz - An Acoustic Performance, Released Early To Streaming Sites Today
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Having rescheduled their March and April UK tour due to the ongoing Covid-19 emergency, elbow have decided to make their forthcoming live album available early on streaming sites for fans to enjoy. Lead singer, Guy Garvey, said:
'Given we should be seeing 100,000 of you fans on this tour we thought we'd bring forward the release of a record we made at the end of last year, 'Live at The Ritz'.

We have a long history with The Ritz, hanging around there as teenagers. Monday night was indie night and where we found our people but never got a snog. It was a really warm atmosphere in a room we've got a ton of history with, one of the best venues in Manchester, one of the best venues in the world.
We hope it goes someway to fixing your disappointment at not being able to see us for the moment'.

In the week that their eighth studio album, 'Giants of All Sizes', became their third consecutive UK Number One album, elbow played a series of special acoustic shows for select audiences in Leeds, Kingston and Manchester. Combining tracks from the new album with songs from their extensive and ever growing back catalogue, the shows offered fans a rare opportunity to see elbow in small venues, with the recordings emphasising the special bond that exists between the band and their fanbase.

The short tour included two sold out, hometown shows at Manchester's Ritz, a place that looms large in the band's history, being the site of a legendary headline show on the release of their debut album 'Asleep in the Back' in 2001 that had the Manchester Evening News display their fortune telling skills when they suggested 'elbow are on the verge of something big'.

The Ritz set reminded fans of that history with versions of both 'Newborn' and 'Scattered Black and Whites' from that debut album alongside versions of 'Grounds for Divorce' from 'The Seldom Seen Kid', 'Magnificent (She Says)' from 'Little Fictions' and 'Great Expectations' from 'Leaders of the Free World'. As befits an album from a band so intrinsically intertwined with their hometown, the show also saw Guy Garvey quote John Cooper Clarke and pay tribute to various Manchester luminaries lost along the way.
Live at The Ritz - An Acoustic Performance is available now on streaming sites, and is set for Vinyl and CD release on April 17.
elbow now tour the UK in September and October with dates rescheduled from March and April.
