Biography - Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Elvis Costello & The Attractions was an alternative rock / new wave band formed by English musican Elvis Costello in 1977. Producing famous work in the genres of punk and new wave music, it also contained Steve Nieve (ne Nason) on keyboards, Pete Thomas on drums, and Bruce Thomas (no relation) on bass. Costello recorded and toured solidly with them until 1984, when he disbanded them to pursue solo projects.
Internationally, the band is perhaps best known for popular rock hits such as "Oliver's Army" and "Pump It Up"
