Summary: <p>The rock band <a href="http://elbow.co.uk/" target="_blank">elbow</a> (small "e") hails from greater Manchester and makes subtle, sensitive, anthemic, joyful music, sometimes augmented with the strings of the Hallé Orchestra, (which they did not bring with them.) Guy Garvey’s vocals and wordplay are perched atop a well-orchestrated but never overwrought blend of melodic bass, guitar and piano riffs, and pulsing percussion, all the while squeezing out a wide range of bottled emotions onto expansive life paintings. They’ve referred to themselves as "prog without the solos" (AllMusic). The band elbow is currently on a North American tour for their latest record, “Little Fictions,” but they will treat us to some of their set, in-studio. </p> <p>Watch their performance via Facebook: </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
