Look forward to 10cc – fronted by songwriting legend Graham Gouldman – performing their classic songs like I’m Not In Love, The Things We Do For Love, Dreadlock Holiday, Donna, Art For Art’s Sake and more.

“The band is sounding fantastic!” says 10cc leader, Graham Gouldman, “our main strength is the songs. Hit after hit after hit. It’s relentless. We show no mercy.”

Gouldman says the band can’t wait to return to New Zealand, with fond memories of previous tours and gratitude for the 12 hit singles and albums 10cc have had in Aotearoa.

With Graham Gouldman in 10cc are Rick Fenn (guitar, bass, vocals), Paul Burgess (drums), Iain Hornal (guitars, vocals, mandolin, keyboards), and Keith Hayman (keyboards, guitar, bass, vocals)

New Zealand’s own Hello Sailor will open each concert in special stripped-back unplugged mode, with a selection of their classic tracks. Fans can look forward to their hits like Gutter Black, Blue Lady, and Lyin’ In The Sand, which are firmly entrenched as bone fide Kiwi classics. Original members Harry Lyon and Rick Ball, with Paul Woolright and Jimmy Taylor continue rockin' the Sailor’ spirit.
