NEWS DIGEST: Thursday, April 3

Elvis Costello is to become a television host for a new music-based programme for Channel 4. Called Spectacle: Elvis Costello with… the show promises unique collaborations, acoustic performances and impromptu "demonstrations of the creative process". Produced by Elton John’s production company Rocket Pictures, the show is set to feature a mixture between the new and old.

Always pushing the creative boundaries into corners it would rather not go, Bjork has unveiled the 2-D video for Wanderlust. A 3-D version is to be released on DVD on April 14. Taken from last year's Volta, the video uses live-action puppetry, Claymation and computer-generated imagery to create the costumes, characters and landscape. In the video, the Icelandic singer can be seen floating and interacting with prehistoric creatures on a Peruvian river before her knapsack morphs into a Gollum like creature with which she wrestles. Heavy. Check it out HERE.

The Rolling Stones were out in force last night at the London premiere of Shine A Light. You can see pictures and video HERE.

And finally...Happy Birthday Richard Thompson. Fairport Covention's guitar-whiz is 59 today.
