Wonderful Crazy Night

A bright, guitar-heavy return to form featuring the classic Elton John Band. Upbeat, piano-driven rock with a warm, live-in-the-room energy and infectious optimism.

Late-career joy

A bright, major-chord optimism sweeps through these ten tracks, capturing a rare late-career pivot toward pure, unadulterated joy. The music trades the somber, cinematic weight of recent collaborations for a rhythmic tightness and a live-in-the-studio energy that prioritizes boogie-woogie hooks and uncomplicated fun.

Moments Worth Waiting For
