Elvis Costello celebrated the release of his Sacred, Profane & Sugarcane album with an intimate solo acoustic show Tuesday in Manhattan.
Costello performed a nearly hourlong set for a small group of fans and radio station contest winners at Jim Brady’s, an Irish pub near Wall Street.
He focused almost entirely on songs from his freshly released album, a collection of Americana style folk songs that was produced by T-Bone Burnett. Costello also performed two new, unreleased songs — Condemned Man and the up tempo show-closer tentatively titled Five Small Words.
Next week, Costello kicks off a brief tour with the Sugarcanes, a band featuring many of the musicians who played on the album.
