Event information

Chris Difford - Not Only…But Also

“Being on tour is something I really enjoy, seeing people and being
with people is part of my experience as a performer.

I will be playing songs from the Squeeze catalogue and from the
solo albums I have recorded over the last 23 years.

My story is told though stand up and some sit down, a trip back to
my council estate in South London, from my very first lyrical
expression to the dressing rooms of this show. 

My new songs written with Boo Hewerdine tell a story of
celebration, 25 years writing lyrics and playing on stages big and
small. A journey I look back on with great fondness and gratitude.

I cant wait to climb back on stage and perform, although I have
been shy in the past I now find myself feasting on the here and now
deep within the shell-like of your ear.I will be joined on stage by
Melvin Duffy on his peddle steel and together we will deliver an
evening of warm and I hope funny stories. Melvins playing is
outstanding and I feel so lucky to have him as my sideman, he cries
over the songs and makes them sound always amazing. Not Only
But Also' is not just a look back on 50 lyrical years, it's a journey
that asks, What Happened? What happened to all those years and
mates I grew up with before I formed a band.
