"Always" - The Coward Brothers (Elvis Costello & T Bone Burnett) - LIVE on The Late Show

[@kenbaker9738]

...and with Lark and Poe to boot! What a packed-full band! So much talent in one place. Nice tune Coward Brothers.

[@SquiresIsle]

Small note: Larkin Poe. In case anyone wants to look them up (and they should). Elvis has been a big supporter of their career since the early early days.

[@chefdjw]

⁠​⁠@@SquiresIsleI’m giving him the auto correct benefit of the doubt on this one. ✌️♥️

[@jozsefnemeth2973]

💥 Having Larkin Poe (Megan and Rebecca) appear on the "Late Show" is a great honor for the Show and for these two experienced, renowned artists...😍😍🎸🎸

[@hippydippy]

Ahh... A breath of fresh air in Country that's gone mad!

[@JongaLife]

I salute you 🫡

[@Baribrotzer]

@@JongaLife Country hasn't gone mad, it's just been invaded by bunkum and Big Money; like most of the US. This is country with the heartbreak - which is central to country - but not the cliches.

[@dh3279]

Agreed!

[@nycdude999]

It’s nice to see Elvis and T-Bone making music together . Having David Mansfield playing violin with them is a special treat.

[@blackmyers]

and that's Tony Garnier on bass

[@elreyvd]

Lovely to see Becca with the mandolin again. The Elvis Costello tour with Larkin Poe is the stuff of legends.

[@thebritkate]

Becca was the brunette on the left ? I wondered if that was a mandolin - lovely little instrument....

[@jamesvandemark2086]

Two smart old pros! Adding a pair of sweet young voices is always a GOOD idea!

[@virgilmoldovan175]

For your knowledge, the "sweet young voices" are Grammy winners Larkin Poe - Rebecca Lovell and Megan Lovell. Not a single word about them?!?!?! What a disgrace!

[@avodiablackheart6131]

Omg this is great, & theyre all with it. & yeah all u dissers.... They were all more 'boingy' in thier youth.. so were you. Id pay to see any one of them right now. Thanx for having them on Stephen. Your a Rock Star Too..

[@stevewithaphen]

Elvis costello! He used to listen to him all the time in the early to mid 80s. He's come a long way since everyday I write the book!

[@titichartay7216]

The Coward Brothers deciet is delightful. Real music by real musicians who care.

[@artharrison9586]

I’m buying this album. As soon as the song is over. Good music isn’t always about who plays the fastest or sings the highest or loudest.

[@Marksurfz]

So stoked to see Larkin Poe playing with these legends!!!

[@longstrangetrip8799]

Not sure anyone has brought his up but that is Tony ganeier on the bass, Bob Dylan’s longest running musical collaboration

[@carmenfernandez5234]

Tony Garnier

[@nomadicroadrat]

What a good vibe way to jump start the holiday season. Costello, Burnett, Mansfield and the Lovell sisters (Larkin Poe). Nice.

[@maureenrowlett3923]

Oh thank you for this!!

[@mariannelaba]

Pretty song. A lot of talent on one stage.

[@amandaisavampire]

Megan and Rebecca slaying as always!! ❤

[@HikerBiker]

You finally found a song/music i like, thank you.

[@mikeroberts7921]

Larkin Poe!!!❤

[@TStone-gh2iq]

That’s a neat song. Really liked it a lot. I loved Elvis Costello and the Attractions (I think) as a high school kid.

[@EdnaMartinez-g1b]

Awesome!!!❤❤❤ Thank you❤

[@chrishug5283]

Legends, all of them.

[@57sitruc]

Larkin Poe. Brilliant

[@VinE83656]

They'd gotten more views if they credited Larkin Poe too. Rebecca and Megan are Grammy winners.

[@bean-spiller]

Costello and T-Bone are both Grammy winners also.

[@VinE83656]

@ I get it. It’s not a Larkin Poe song, but a nod would have been nice.

[@carmenfernandez5234]

​@bean-spiller ....So is Tony Garnier, the bass player, via Bob Dylan's music.

[@jdmac44]

[@kerryknoll1]

Somehow I managed to hang onto my copy of the Coward Brothers original (I think) 45 rpm record People's Limosine. One of the few vinyls I still have. Was never 100% sure who the band was though I thought I could hear Elvis in there.

[@nd2river]

Great to see classic musicians live, if you like this and want some new music with an older soul, check out Two River Band 'Red Light' we're two older Irish guys who perform now and again, no need of fame or fortune, just hope you like the song, To Elvis thanks for the New Waves of the 70s

[@KonaMark1]

Very Beatles sounding harmonies ✌️

[@jozsefnemeth2973]

Come on, Mr. Colbert, and what about the "Special Guest"? I'm really disappointed, because I didn't think the two old artists would invite Larkin Poe just as a "bio-scenery"😢

[@andyscott5277]

I mean, they’re the band 😅 "Singling" out kinds defeats the purpose of a "band."

[@AnitaKrolak]

Always ❤🎉

HOLY CRAP BATMAN * 1982 THE FAMOUS ROCKY T-BONE BURNETT , OPENED AT THE KINGDOME SEATLE , FOR THE CLASH & THE WHO , T-BONE AS USUAL WAS WEARING TALL LONG & ALL BLACK & REMINDED ME EERILY AND SOUNDED LIKE A YOUNG JOHN LENNON , 42 YEARS & I"VE NEVER STOPPED LISTENING 42 YEARS , THE ONE THAT HAS GIVIN SO MUCH TO SO MANY* THANK YOU T-BONE AKA "ROCKY" LOL*🤣

[@peterb.559]

I remember seeing Megan and Rebecca with sister Jessica when they were the Lovell Sisters, playing bluegrass at the Station Inn in Nashville.

[@simonagree4070]

Turn up the women's microphones. The band needs the harmonies.

[@stevewithaphen]

Nice film location. Where was this?

[@thatchzembo1001]

and Larkin Poe!

[@louiebee6745]

T-Bone produced Larkin Poe back in 2014.

[@virgilmoldovan175]

Are you kidding? Rebecca and Megan "produced" themselves since 2004, when they were 13 yo resp. 15 yo!

[@mattemmer307]

TONY!

[@dansavik7137]

I was so disappoited when Letterman finished the show, but it still has good music.

Elvis Costello has a solid musical legacy behind him, but maybe it's time for him to call it a day as far as touring and public performances go, spend more time with his wife, likewise a celebrated musical artist in Canada, and his two sons ..
