NEW WAVE favourites Squeeze return with an extensive tour of the UK that reaches the Bournemouth O2 Academy on November 23.
Former Housemartin and Beautiful South front man Paul Heaton has just been announced as a special guest. Heaton and his band will be performing a selection of old and new songs from his extensive back catalogue.
It’s been over 35 years since Squeeze burst onto the music scene and are still as vital as they’ve ever been. There is no end of Squeeze fans currently wearing their influences firmly on their sleeve, whether it be Mark Ronson, Kasabian, Lily Allen or The Feeling.
Since founders Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook reformed the band with Squeeze veteran John Bentley, the band has become an instant favourite on the live circuit.
Difford’s lyrics and Tilbrook’s music have survived everything over the years, from the ever-changing musical landscape to their own internal reshuffles and even an acrimonious breakup - but this new tour will remind fans just why they have left such an indelible impression on the UK’s music scene.
