Elvis Costello fans are in for a treat Saturday, September 27.

That’s when he’s bringing “Radio Soul!: The Early Songs of Elvis Costello” to the Akron Civic Theater, as part of a 22-date extension of his East Coast and Midwest Tour.

The show will feature numbers drawn from record releases from “My Aim Is True” in 1977 to “Blood & Chocolate” in 1986, along with other surprises.

Those nine years saw the first appearance of some of Elvis Costello’s most renowned compositions from “Watching The Detectives” to “I Want You”, along with songs that have remained in The Imposters’ live repertoire over the last 20 or more years, including “Alison,” “Man Out Of Time” and “Brilliant Mistake.”

Asked about the surprising theme of this tour, Costello responded: “For any songwriter, it has to be a compliment if people want to hear songs written up to fifty years ago. Among them, “Radio Soul,” the first draft of what eventually became “Radio Radio.”

The Imposters are Steve Nieve, Pete Thomas and Davey Faragher and they are joined once again by guitarist, Charlie Sexton.

Tickets will be available through Elviscostello.com, staring Friday, April 25.
