Don’t be fooled by the title of Glenn Tilbrook’s latest album, Happy Ending, or at least not all of it. He’s happy, of course, and why wouldn’t he be? He’s more than earned his place at pop’s top table as one of our most cherished singers, guitarists and songwriters, not to mention an in-demand and endlessly endearing live performer. But more than 40 years after he first answered an ad placed by Chris Difford looking for like-minded sorts to form the band that became the much-loved evergreen Squeeze, an ending is nowhere in sight.

In 2014 alone, in addition to releasing the acclaimed Happy Ending, Glenn is busy treading the boards both at home and away, saddling up with Mr Difford again for a tour of songs and stories under the banner ‘The At Odds Couple’.

Tyrone Noonan and Adam James will be supporting at Glenn’s upcoming gig at Miami Tavern’s Shark Bar.
