Costner's wife 'inspired music career'

Kevin Costner has credited his wife for his attempt to re-launch a music career.

The actor, who is releasing an album with band Modern West next month, was convinced to do so after wife Christine heard his work with old group Roving Boy.

"[My wife] heard some of my older music and said: 'Why don't you try it again?'," Costner said. "I kept giving her these excuses, but she kept at it. It wasn't once a week, it wasn't once a month - it was whenever she felt to mention it to build up my confidence.

"She's the reason I'm making music again. And I feel so happy about that."
