CHRIS DIFFORD: THE ACOUSTIC BOOK TOUR // 8 APR
Chris Difford is a
rare breed. As a
member of one
of London’s best-
loved bands, the
Squeeze co-
founder has
made a lasting
contribution to
English music
with hits such as
“Cool For Cats”,
“Up The
Junction”,
“Labelled
With Love”,
“Hourglass” and
“Tempted”.
Despite the fact
that Chris has
helped
soundtrack so
many fans’ lives
since his first
release in 1977,
the passion for innovation and love of playing still drives him to carry
on writing rather than sit back and admire his handiwork. Chris will
regale the audience about some of the key events in his life in music
from his autobiography, Some Fantastic Place, and perform some of
his biggest hits acoustically alongside tracks from Pants, a best-of album
featuring songs from a stage play created by Chris and Boo Hewerdine.
7.30pm. Price: £16
Stag Plaza, London Road, Sevenoaks TN13 1ZZ
