Squeeze

Legendary songwriters Squeeze reunited in 2007 for a series of very special live dates on
The Quintessential Tour, their first live shows this century. Eight years since their last tour and almost
30 years on from the release of their eponymous debut album, Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook’s live
return saw them perform a host of their classics.

  

                                


 The tour follows the upcoming album release of Essential Squeeze (Universal Music TV) on April 30 ,
the definitive hits collection (with two previously unreleased tracks) showcasing the very best of the
bands 25 years contribution to the fine art of the pop single. Also released on the same day is the
Essential Squeeze DVD, containing all their best pop promo videos (never before available on DVD),
plus a full length live concert from 1982.

Since Squeeze originally disbanded, Difford has continued recording and is currently completing his
second solo album provisionally titled Another Day Above Ground. The album will be released in the
UK in the Summer 2007. On the live front, he is touring the USA for the first time in ten years with his
acoustic trio during February and March. Difford will be undertaking a UK tour with his full electric band
in May/June 2007 with a London date at The Jazz Cafe, Camden on 3 June 2007.

Tilbrook has been extensively touring the UK, America, Australia and Japan over the last 7 years. 
2001 saw the release of his first solo album, The Incomplete Glenn Tilbrook, 2004 the release of his
2nd critically acclaimed solo album Transatlantic Ping Pong.  In 2006 came the release of a feature
length documentary Glenn Tilbrook: One For The Road about life as a touring musician on the road in
the US.  Glenn is currently working with his band, The Fluffers, on his 3rd solo album due for release
later this year.

Squeeze are as relevant today as they ever were with the likes of The View, The Feeling, Razorlight,
Fountains of Wayne, Ron Sexsmith and Kasabian citing them as a major influence. Formed in South
London in 1974, the band enjoyed revered success releasing acclaimed albums including Argybargy,
Sweets From A Stranger, Frank and Ridiculous. They headlined Madison Square Gardens in New
York in 1982 and toured relentlessly to rapturous crowds.

Supporters of Triskel concerts will already know Glenn Tilbrook was the first professional public concert we staged at the Venue back in Jan 2002! We have since secured 2 nights of Chris Diffords wonderful band at Peel Centenary and whilst we had been trying to secure Glenn and the Fluffers it came as a fabulous surprise to be able to secure SQUEEZE themselves. Glenn and Chris both said it wasnt going to happen again but thankfully it is and we are very flattered to be included in such a select handful of dates. Chris is even going that bit farther by taking 4 ferry trips to Ireland and the Mainland in order to be able to play our concert so your support and show of appreciation of his commitment would be appropriate.

Expect a top night of the finest songwriting by two of England's best living writers.Ben Dunderdale will provide apt support with his blend of bluesy folk acoustics and he has already played a support slot at an earlier Difford concert so it will be an exciting night indeed!

Lend your support and be assured of one very special night out!
