This breathtaking album features Costello’s inimitable baritone fronting a spectacular lineup that includes a string quartet, a horn nonet, and a slew of legendary jazz musicians, including Peter Erskine and Lee Konitz. Intimate, jazzy and romantic, this is a truly spectacular and ambitious work by one of popular music’s greatest songwriters.
“North confirms Costello's position as one of the most accomplished songwriters of the last thirty years.” –Rob Webb, BBC Music Review “North exudes a consistent, subdued beauty…” -Anthony DeCurtis, Rolling Stone
