Squeeze set to play Birmingham Symphony Hall
Legends Squeeze have announced an extensive run of UK dates, starting at Birmingham’s Symphony Hall tonight and tomorrow.
The shows follow the success of their North American tour in 2016 and the incredible reception to their latest album Cradle To The Grave.
The band provided the soundtrack to pop fans during the 1970s and 1980s with hits such as Cool for Cats, Up the Junction, Slap and Tickle, Another Nail in My Heart, Pulling Mussels (from the Shell), Tempted, Labelled with Love, Black Coffee in Bed and Hourglass.
The mainstays of the band were Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford, though Jools Holland was one of many notable past members. Squeeze’s Cradle To The Grave project came about when they created music based on the autobiography Going To Sea in a Sieve by Danny Baker. They debuted the song Cradle to the Grave and recording for the album got underway a year later. The record was released in 2015 and proved a big hit.
