In April 2016, Elvis Costello premiered five songs that seem connected to A Face In The Crowd, the 1957 film written by Budd Schulberg, directed by Elia Kazan, and starring Andy Griffith.
Elvis has spoken about working on three stage musicals, but there is not yet any confirmation that a musical adaptation of A Face In The Crowd is one of them.
Songs
A Face In The Crowd, premiered 2016-04-12 in Salt Lake City, obviously shares a title with the film.
Vitajex, premiered 2016-04-13 in Jackson, concerns the miracle pill featured in A Face In The Crowd. (Vitajex is also the subject of song in the film, but Elvis' song seems to be an original.)
Blood & Hot Sauce, premiered 2016-04-13 in Jackson, is about Lonesome Rhodes, the character portrayed by Andy Griffith in the film.
Town Called Riddle, premiered 2016-04-15 in Boise, refers to Lonesome Rhodes' hometown of Riddle, Arkansas.
