Jeff Lynne’s ELO, formerly known as the Electric Light Orchestra, officially launched their new album on Monday night in an intimate show at Porchester Hall in London.
The new album, Alone in the Universe, will be out this coming Friday and is the band’s thirteenth studio album (fourteenth if you count the Xanadu soundtrack) and their first since 2001’s Zoom.
The set list for the night wasn’t that different from the show that they performed last year in Hyde Park with the removal of Ma-Ma-Ma-Belle, 10538 Overture and the Traveling Wilbury’s Handle With Care and the addition of four songs from the new album.
