10cc announce new Aussie tour

Iconic British rock band 10cc are back and ready to perform 10 shows across Australia for their excited fans.

10cc have sold more than 30 million albums around the world and the band’s longevity is a testament to their timeless songs, including hits such as Rubber Bullets, I’m Not In Love and Dreadlock Holiday, which is a favourite of co-founder’s Graham Gouldman to perform.

Gouldman attribute’s the bands long-lasting appeal to the quality and individuality of the band’s songs. 

“They don’t seem to date; they are original, we never followed any trend we simple wrote for our own pleasure. The fact that the songs are being played as often on the radio today as they ever were shows how true that is,” he says.

And as for why Dreadlock Holiday is his favourite to perform?

“Everyone joins in and people just love it.”

With four decades of song-writing excellence under his belt as well as fantastic musicians behind him, Gouldman confidently promises audiences they will be thrilled with the performances.

“This is as near as you’re ever going to get to hearing the perfect 10cc.  Hit after hit after hit. It’s relentless. We show no mercy.”

The live band features Graham Gouldman (vocals, bass and guitar); Rick Fenn (lead guitar, vocals); Paul Burgess (drums, percussion); Iain Hornal (vocals, percussion, guitar, keyboards) and Keith Hayman (keyboards, guitar, bass vocals).  Paul has worked with 10cc from the beginning and Rick joined the live band in the mid-‘70s. 

The 10 shows are set to be a hit and tickets are currently on sale now.
