Painted From Memory – The Music of Bacharach and Costello: QLD Cabaret Festival

Painted From Memory – The Music of Bacharach and Costello: QLD Cabaret Festival


In the late nineties, Burt Bacharach teamed up with the inimitable Elvis Costello to create the remarkable album Painted From Memory. Michael Falzon (We Will Rock You, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Rock of Ages) and Bobby Fox (Jersey Boys, The Fantastic Mr. Fox) perform a unique re-imagining of this classic album along with other memorable Bacharach and Costello hits.

A long-time Bacharach fan, Costello recorded several Bacharach songs including “I Just Don’t Know What to Do with Myself” and “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again”. These and other timeless tunes are recreated in Painted from Memory with a nine-piece band and special guest Luke Kennedy (The Voice, Jesus Christ Superstar, The Ten Tenors).

Presented by Queensland Cabaret Festival and Queensland Performing Arts Centre. Head to the Brisbane Powerhouse website to view the full Queensland Cabaret Festival program.
