Elbow performed live on Later With…Jools Holland last night (April 16th) as the long running series returned to the BBC for its 44th run. Have a watch of their performance of ‘New York Morning‘ below.
Neneh Cherry, Eagulls, Engelbert Humperdinck, Clean Bandit and Agnes Obel were the other guests as Elbow promoted their recent UK number one album ‘The Take Off and Landing Of Everything‘.
“This is the most Northern band in the world,” Live4ever’s review reads. “They made craft ale to tie in with their album. They turned ‘Independent Woman’ into a cheeky xylophonic polka. They don’t need towering bombast or crashing cymbals to make music that touches you. Just warmth, and momentum, and organised silence.”
An extended version of yesterday’s show will now go out on Friday (April 18th). Other acts booked to appear on one of the BBC’s last remaining prime time music-orientated shows include Coldplay, The Black Keys and Paolo Nutini.
