Buzznet has given elbow a stellar review from their final performance on their recent U.S. tour in Hollywood last Friday.

"On Friday night at the Avalon, Elbow played the last show of their U.S. tour to a packed house that likely felt lead singer Guy Garvey had designed the seamless set list for their ears only. It was as if the words just came to him in the moment and were meant solely for those in the audience to absorb."

The Denver Post Reverb Blog has reviewed Elbow's recent performance at The Bluebird Theater.

"Elbow’s sound is frequently described as brooding — or downright depressing. The band even pointed out that to show up revealed you to be “a bit of a softy.” With a layered sound and graceful vocals, pre-”Kid A” Radiohead might be the most apt comparison; the music is languid but the lyrics are frequently hopeful. The band worked diligently to alternate downtempo songs with more upbeat ones so as not to sap all the energy from the crowd...."

Check out the great live review from Sentimentalistmag.com of Elbow's recent live show at Webster Hall, NYC.

"Early into the set, singer/guitarist Guy Garvey responds to a fan’s remark, “You never usually hear that…Elbow rocks,” but it’s true, the band indeed knows how to put on an unforgettable show and get an audience revved up enough to eat out of the palms of their hands. The new hit “Grounds For Divorce”, with its angsty-blues beat and sexy refrain, is just one more of the evening’s many rocking high points..."

In support of the new set Elbow will be coming stateside kicking things off with a show in New York City April 26th at Webster Hall (see below for more dates). Digital Single “One Day Like This” will be released March 18th with the album, The Seldom Seen Kid, arriving April 22nd.

The lyrical core of The Seldom Seen Kid sees lead singer and lyricist Guy Garvey address key questions of life. The 11 tracks on the album cover themes of love and loss and become the central focus of an album that sees Elbow, a band universally recognized for their musical ability and innovation; stretch their sonic template further than ever before. The album was recorded at their own facility within Salford’s Blueprint Studios and was produced by keyboardist Craig Potter.

Lead singer Guy Garvey, drummer Richard Jupp, keyboardist Craig Potter, guitarist Mark Potter and bassist Pete Turner all met in the early '90s at college in Bury. Moving together to Manchester Elbow was born and after releasing a string of EPs (Noisebox, Newborn and Any Day Now) the band signed with V2 Records and released their debut album Asleep In The Back in 2001. Cast Of Thousands followed in 2004 and Leaders Of The Free World in 2005.
