The Attractions

About The Attractions

English backing band for the English new wave musician Elvis Costello. They consisted of Steve Nieve (keyboards and ukulele), Bruce Thomas (bass guitar), and Pete Thomas (drums). They released one album (and two associated singles) as an independent entity, without Costello, in 1980. Elvis Costello & The Attractions collaborated between 1977 and 1986, and again from 1994 to 1996.
