ShareArt pop and rock icons 10cc, have announced the addition of a further 26 concerts to their The Ultimate Ultimate Greatest Hits Tour for Autumn 2024.
Considered one of the UK’s premier live touring bands, the extra shows come off the back of the band’s most successful UK tour to date, with 18 concerts through March, including an advance sell-out at London’s 5,200-seat Royal Albert Hall.
Having also recently announced an extensive US tour, their first in more than three decades, playing venues such as the Majestic Theater in Dallas, Theater at Ace Hotel in Los Angeles and Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, 10cc’s classic ballad I’m Not In Love, which reached number two in the Billboard charts, being included in the soundtrack for Disney’s blockbuster film Guardians of the Galaxy has certainly help raise interest there.
Known for their impeccable live performances, their catalogue of hits sees the band seamlessly transition from art-pop to mock-reggae and impressively harmonised ballads, to prog rock epics Somewhere In Hollywood and Feel The Benefit.
Three of their eleven UK top ten hits reached number one; Rubber Bullets, I’m Not In Love and Dreadlock Holiday; and made the charts worldwide, which explains the band’s extensive touring schedule which has taken them to Australia and New Zealand, Japan, Iceland, Latvia and from Scandinavia down through mainland Europe.
At the helm is 10cc founding co-member Graham Gouldman, who says: “What is particularly satisfying is seeing our audience demographic changing with more and more younger people coming to our gigs. The shows in March have been our most successful in the UK and that is very gratifying, as we are only doing what we love – playing the music of 10cc.”
The band line-up comprises Gouldman on bass guitars, electric guitar, acoustic guitar and vocals; Rick Fenn on lead guitar, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, vocals; Paul Burgess on drums, percussion, keyboards; Keith Hayman on keyboards, electric guitar, bass guitar, vocals and Andy Park on electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, percussion, mandolin, keyboards, vocals.
