Chris Difford is a rare breed. He is best known as co-founder and songwriter in one of Britain’s favourite and most loved bands – Squeeze – with whom he has played for more than forty years. But there is much more to tell – and Chris will share some of his story with us, during an entertaining and enthralling evening, road-tested in two sell-out weeks at the Edinburgh Festival. Part stand-up, part sit-down and featuring songs old and new, this will be a night to remember.
Chris has a gift for bringing the everyday and mundane to life, with his smart, pithy lyrics. He is a Grammy nominated lyricist and double Ivor Novello Award-winning songwriter who is also an author and podcaster. With fellow Squeeze founder Glenn Tilbrook, he has written some of the most enduring songs of our lifetimes, including Cool For Cats, Labelled With Love, Tempted and Up The Junction. He has also co-written with people like Elton John, Bryan Ferry and Jools Holland. One of his recent compositions is even on Ollie Murs’ latest album.
And there’s more. For the past 25 years, Chris has passed on his skills and passion through residential songwriting courses. His autobiography, Some Fantastic Place, was released in 2017 to widespread acclaim. He has released a number of solo albums, including The Last Temptation of Chris. Over the past year or so, Chris has also been busy with Squeeze, touring America and the UK and releasing a new EP, Food for Thought. And in his fascinating podcast, I Never Thought It Would Happen, he discusses songwriting with his many famous friends. Well worth a listen, all of it. Click here to book your tickets.
John Peppard is a singer, guitarist and Grammy-nominated songwriter. He lives in Surrey but spends a lot of his time in Nashville. His songs have been performed by artists including Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood.
