Hog Branch - The Costellophones

The Costellophones are Austin's premier Elvis Costello tribute band. These "Minor Attractions" are led by vocalist/drummer Mark Woodruff (who coincidentally met his wife by asking her about an EC album). The Costellophones also feature John Kelley (guitar), Ed Ferguson (keys), Rick Watson (bass). The mighty Alec Woodruff often fills in for Rick on bass. The Costellophones formed out of admiration for the music of the genius born Declan Patrick MacManus. The Costellophones website is the place to book the band for your club or private function. (It's also a FANtastic resource for any EC fan. Check it out! You can also visit us at myspace.com/thecostellophones
This short clip of my Elvis Costello tribute band, The Costellophones was recorded on a digital camera at one of our shows in Austin. I was really surprised by the great bass sound on that little mic! I'm the guy with the buzz cut in the middle of the stage. More videos of some of my live performances are on my YouTube Channel. You might want to pause the audio player at the bottom of this page before playing the video.
