His prolific and varied 30-year career has been marked by two constants: sharp songwriting and musical restlessness. The latter has seen Elvis Costello dabble in almost every musical form, from country to jazz to orchestral. This stems from the fact that, at heart, Costello is a fan. His desire to work with his musical heroes has attracted collaborators as diverse as Burt Bacharach and Paul McCartney, Anne Sofie von Otter, Allen Toussaint, Aimee Mann, Bill Frisell, and Brian Eno.
Mac Miller: The Blue Slide Park Tour with Pac Div and Casey VeggiesWednesday, November 23, 2011
Event Time: 8 PM
Ticket Prices: $28.50 (Advance); $33.50 (Day of Show)In a blossoming hip-hop hotbed of talent, Malcolm "Mac Miller" McCormick is next up out of Pittsburgh, PA. A recent graduate of Taylor Allderdice High School, Mac caught the eyes and ears of Rostrum Records, inking a deal in July 2010. A multitalented musician who can play numerous instruments and a young novice of the freestyle/cipher/battle circuit of his hometown, Mac has been paving his way to... superstardom in his blue-collar hometown for years.
