One of our venue heroes and an all-round good egg, Chris Difford returns to TOM this September as part of his Not Only… But Also tour - featuring a bit of stand up, with a bit of sit down.

Chris writes…

"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 twenty three 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, twenty five years writing lyrics and playing on stages big and small. A journey I look back on with great fondness and gratitude.

I can’t 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.

To be on stage playing my songs as a solo performer is one thing, but it’s something else to be joined by such a generous team of musicians. Andy Jones on drums, Matt Round on bass, Stephen Large on keyboards, and Steve Smith on percussion, plus Melvin Duffy on steel and Andy Caine on guitar. Incredible. I feel so proud and happy to share the stage with such great people.

See you all at TOM."
