Elvis Costello and Diana Krall are expecting a baby.The Canadian jazz singer and her British rocker husband announced on Sunday (25.06.06) that their first child together is due in December - which coincidentally coincides with their third wedding anniversary on December 6.The happy couple confirmed the news via a New York-based spokesman.The 51-year-old Liverpudlian - ten years his wife's senior - is currently on tour with Allen Toussaint to promote their album "The River In Reverse".The record was inspired by the Katrina disaster which devastated Toussaint's home city of New Orleans.Costello said: "The album began in my mind as a song book of Allen's work, but in those first weeks after Katrina, I thought maybe we could write some more songs that speak specifically about."The 'Pump It Up' singer also praised his fellow musician's reaction to the tragedy.

He added: "Allen's optimism about the recovery has been remarkable. He's so stoic in the face of his losses."

Costello's pregnant wife plans to release a new album in September.
