  • Elvis Costello is a British singer-songwriter. He began his career as part of London's pub rock scene in the early 1970s and later became associated with the first wave of the British new wave movement of the mid-to-late 1970s. His critically acclaimed debut album, "My Aim Is True", was recorded in 1976. Shortly after recording his first album, he formed The Attractions as his backing band. They toured and recorded together for the better part of a decade, though differences between Costello and members of The Attractions caused them to split by 1986. Much of Costello's work since 1986 has been credited to him as a solo artist, though partial reunions with some members of The Attractions have been credited to the group over the years.

  • In 1971, Elvis's parents divorced, so he moved to Windsor with Lou and decided to drop the "Presley Jr." part of his name. From then on he would be known only as Elvis Costello. He then formed a band called Rusty Nails Give You Tetanus, but when that failed, he formed a new band called Flip You Off in the City, but that ultimately failed too. Costello quit school after he finished, and worked several odd jobs, the oddest of all being a perfume tester for Elizabeth Arden. The fumes made him high, and he frequently engaged in mindless thought, resulting in song lyrics that he wrote down and later put to music in his spare time when he was alone with his guitar. But all of that changed once he made a demo tape and gave it to Stiff Records. His recording of a song he wrote about his parents' divorce called "I'm Not Angry" caught the attention of his future manager, and the rest is history.

He then performed "Radio, Radio", a move which caused him to be banned as he had changed his plans without notifying Lorne Michaels. However, the ban was eventually lifted and Costello was formally reinstated in 1989 where he was invited back again. Costello even parodied his own stunt on the 25th anniversary show by interrupting the Beastie Boys' performance of "Sabotage" which quickly morphed into a joint performance of "Radio, Radio.". On May 18, 1991, he once again was the musical performer at the time when George Wendt was hosting.
