Nov 3, 2019 · Sean: Frontm3n certainly seem to have taken Germany by storm – you seem to tour their quite often and they seem to really have embraced what you’re doing. It’s a country that seems to have a real knack of picking up on good music and hanging on to it…. Mick: I don’t think it’s a knack really.
Nov 8, 2019 · Consisting of Mick Wilson, Pete Lincoln and Peter Howarth, the lead singers of legendary bands 10cc, Sweet, and The Hollies (respectively), who have combined their musical talents to take you on a nostalgic journey in a show that is jam packed with the hits you love, delivered with an acoustic twist, a few surprises and a great sense of fun.
Bio. Mick Wilson was born on 30th November 1962. His Mother agreed to the name Michael only on the condition that he was never to be called Mick (go figure!), which is something she has never done. His love for music started when his parents bought him a guitar for Christmas in 1969 and, far from being the 5-minute wonder that was anticipated ...

While they broke through in the 1970s, 10cc had their roots in the 1960s and even earlier. Kevin Godley and Lol Creme knew each other as boys in Stockport, England, while Godley and Graham Gouldman went to the same secondary school and played their first music together at the local Jewish Lad's Brigade. 1n 1964, Gouldman's band The Whirlwinds recor...
10cc means 10 cubic centimetres – which is the same as 10ml. Bit of an odd bandname, no? The group got their name from King when he signed them to his UK Records label in July 1972, but where he got it from is open to some dispute. King claimed that the unusual bandname came from a dream where he was standing in front of the Hammersmith Odeon in Lo...
At the core of the original 10cc were two separate songwriting teams: the pop-heavy duo of Stewart and Goldman and the more artsy Godley and Creme. Godley and Creme left the group in 1976 (more on that later), but through its lineup changes, 10cc released 11 studio albums, including a run of five top 10 records in 1970s: Sheet Music, The Original S...
It sounds like a cliché, but the thing that first drove a wedge between the members of 10cc genuinely was creative differences. As the group scored more and more success, there was a split between the pop (Stewart & Goldman) and art (Godley & Creme). Godley and Creme thought things were getting a bit stale in 10cc and drifted off to record their tr...
Not content with their career as popstars in 10cc, and later as the experimental rock duo Godley & Creme, the pair decided to move into pop music video production, just as the medium exploded in the 1980s. They started with their own clips for 'Englishman in New York' and 'Wide Boy', before lending their skills to other artists, racking up over 50 ...
Godley & Creme weren't the only members of 10cc to score some serious success outside the band. Before 10cc even launched, Graham Gouldman scored some major hits writing songs for other artists, putting his stamp on the 1960s. Between 1965 and 1967 he wrote 'For Your Love', 'Heart Full of Soul' and 'Evil Hearted You' for The Yardbirds, and 'Look Th...
After the success of 1987 compilation Changing Faces – The Very Best of 10cc and Godley & Creme which covered both groups, Goldman and Stewart reconvened as 10cc in 1991 to record ...Meanwhile, and they (sort of) got back together with Godley and Creme. All the songs on the comeback album were Godley/Stewart numbers (apart from closer 'Don't Break ...
