CBS will air An Evening with Elton John and Brandi Carlile, an hourlong primetime concert special, on Sunday, April 6 at 8 pm. The special, which will feature live performances, stories about the duo’s longtime friendship and a look at their new joint album, will be broadcast on the CBS network and will stream on Paramount+.

The special will be filmed on March 26 at London’s Palladium Theatre. Accompanied by a live band, the musicians will perfom songs from their new album, Who Believes in Angels? which releases April 4 via Interscope Records. They’ll also play a selection of their individual greatest hits, including classics from Elton’s catalogue and a special performance of an unreleased track by Carlile.

Between performances, the two will talk about their 20-year friendship, the journey behind their latest collaboration, along with footage from the project. The evening will include tributes to the artists’ careers from those closest to the pair.

An Evening with Elton John and Brandi Carlile is produced by Fulwell Entertainment with Ben Winston, Gabe Turner and Sally Wood serving as executive producers.
