Hey Clockface

Elvis Costello follows up 2018’s acclaimed "Look Now" with a new album, "Hey Clockface", in October. It was recorded in Helsinki, Paris and New York and mixed in Los Angeles. The album features the songs "No Flag", "Hetty O’Hara Confidential" and "We Are All Cowards Now".

Following the solo recording of those 3 tracks at Suomenlinnan Studio, Helsinki in February 2020, Costello immediately traveled to Paris for a weekend session at Les Studios Saint Germain. Costello says, “I sang live on the studio floor, directing from the vocal booth. We cut 9 songs in 2 days. We spoke very little. Almost everything the musicians played was a spontaneous response to the song I was singing. I’d had a dream of recording in Paris like this, one day”.

Like 2018’s "Look Now", the album is produced by Elvis Costello and Sebastian Krys. It’s available as a 2 LP vinyl set and on CD and digital. "Hey Clockface" is released on October 30th, 2020.
