Kevin Costner to croon at the Strathmore

Published February 28, 2012 5:00am ET



The other half of Whitney Houston’s “Bodyguard” duo, Kevin Costner, is due back in the area this April. Turns out, Houston wasn’t the only musically talented star in the film, as Costner will be singing with his country band Modern West at a concert at the Strathmore. Tickets for the April 5 show are still available.

This cameo is quite a departure from the last time Costner made headlines in town. In June 2010 he testified before Congress in the aftermath of the Gulf oil spill about an invention he financed, what we call his “oil-water-separator-thingamajig.”

The Strathmore show starts at 8 p.m.
