Acclaimed for their innovative sound and candid, evocative lyrics, Elbow has received vast critical acclaim and been endorsed by major artists Blur, R.E.M. and U2. The Velvet Underground's co-founder John Cale cited Elbow's "Switching Off" as one of the greatest songs ever written in a BBC interview.
The band's forthcoming album The Seldom Seen Kid will be released on March 17th and is preceded by a single, Grounds for Divorce, on March 10th, which will be available for one week only.
