Elvis Costello is honoured to be part of Picket mural

News of the Liverpool Irish mural at The New Picket Music venue in Liverpool and in particular the inclusion of Elvis Costello has reached the man himself. Mr Costello whose real name is Declan McManus sent a great message of support this week to The Liverpool Mural Project from Vancouver, Canada where he lives with his wife Diana Krall and their two children.

I received a photo from a good mate of mine in Liverpool and I heard all about the mural and the work of the Belfast and Liverpool artists, I think it looks amazing and I'm very honoured to find myself included in the painting. I'll be down The Picket to have a proper look next time I'm in the city. Well done to everyone involved. All the best, Declan.
