Squeeze, with very special guest Billy Bragg, bring their most ambitious tour of their 50+ year career to Swansea Arena.
Squeeze are playing the Swansea Building Society Arena on Monday 30 November, with Billy Bragg as very special guest. It's part of a tour the band is calling the most ambitious of their more than 50-year career, and it comes on the back of their new studio album, Trixies.
Squeeze were formed in 1973 by Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, and they've been at it ever since. If you're not familiar with the name, you'll almost certainly know the songs: 'Up The Junction', 'Tempted', 'Cool For Cats', 'Another Nail in My Heart' and 'Labelled With Love' are all part of the catalogue they've built over five decades. The new album Trixies is the latest addition to that, and this tour is the first time they're taking it out on the road.
Billy Bragg joins them as very special guest, so there are two distinct acts on one bill. Bragg is a singer, songwriter and activist who's spent as much time in the political arena as he has on stage, and he'll be opening the night before Squeeze take over.

There's also a bit more to the ticket than just the music. £1 from every sale goes to the Music Venue Trust, a charity that supports grassroots music venues across the country, and Glenn Tilbrook has recently become a patron of theirs. So a small part of your night goes toward keeping smaller stages open.
Doors open at 18:30, and tickets start from £38.22, with a £3.95 transaction fee on top. It's a Monday night, so you'll want to get your timing right if you're heading in from work.
