Elton John and Brandi Carlile are set to enchant audiences with a collaborative special on CBS titled An Evening With Elton John and Brandi Carlile. This eagerly anticipated concert event will treat viewers to one hour of music magic, featuring live performances, intimate storytelling, and an exclusive glimpse into the making of their new album, Who Believes in Angels?. This concert will be filmed at London's iconic Palladium Theatre and broadcasted on April 6, 2025, underscoring CBS's commitment to bringing top-tier entertainment to its viewers. In addition to airing on CBS, the show will also be available for streaming via Paramount+, offering a wide availability for fans across different platforms.

The show promises a meticulous blend of musical prowess, delving into both the artists' solo hits and a selection from their collaborative project. As they perform songs from Who Believes in Angels?, John's timeless classics alongside new compositions from Carlile's repertoire will create an unforgettable musical experience. The duo will not only share the stage musically but also engage in candid conversations, providing a deeper insight into their 20-year friendship and their artistic journey. The presence of an unreleased track from Carlile, along with a carefully chosen setlist, will elevate the evening's charm, making it a must-watch for music lovers.

Behind the scenes, a powerhouse production team from Fulwell Entertainment, led by Ben Winston, Gabe Turner, and Sally Wood, promises a seamlessly orchestrated event. Their successful handling of previous high-profile broadcasts, such as Elton John's Emmy-winning Farewell from Dodger Stadium, ensures that this special will be a masterclass in event production. The collaborative input from Bernie Taupin and Andrew Watt in songwriting reflects a fusion of diverse artistic forces, aimed at pushing the boundaries of creativity. This joint effort among prominent industry figures is anticipated to deliver a show that not only entertains but also resonates on a deeper emotional level.

John and Carlile's past collaborations, highlighted by their Oscar-nominated “Never Too Late,” already set a precedent of exquisite artistry and synergy. Their common thread of advocacy and friendship adds a poignant depth to the concert narrative. In press materials, both artists have expressed how this project feels like a new chapter, with Elton John referring to the album as a continuation towards his future, a transition into a “Career Mark 2.” Carlile echoes this sentiment, highlighting the inspirational environment fostered through their collaboration.

The concert, recorded on March 26, will include contributions from celebrated musicians, ensuring a rich, detailed sound to match the emotional depth of the material. Additionally, tributes from individuals closest to both musicians are expected to provide an intimate glimpse into their influential careers. This combination of music, conversation, and personal anecdotes sets the event apart as not just a concert but a celebration of musical heritage and collaboration.
