About

Squeeze are an English rock band that came to prominence in the United Kingdom during the new wave period of the late 1970s, and continued recording in the 1980s, 1990s and 2010s. In the UK, their singles "Cool for Cats", "Up the Junction", and "Labelled with Love" were top-ten chart hits. Though not as commercially successful in the United States, Squeeze had American hits with "Tempted", "Black Coffee in Bed", and "Hourglass", and were considered a part of the Second British Invasion.

The vast majority of their material is written by Chris Difford (lyrics) and Glenn Tilbrook (music) who are guitarists and vocalists in the band, and the group's only consistent members. The duo were hailed as "the heirs to Lennon and McCartney's throne" during the band's initial popularity in the late 1970s. The group formed in Deptford, London, in 1974, and first broke up in 1982. Squeeze then reformed in 1985, and disbanded again in 1999. The band, which has included more than 30 musicians over the years amidst constant line-up changes, has also been noted as a launchpad for the successful careers of their former keyboard players (and occasional vocalists) Jools Holland and Paul Carrack.

The band reunited for tours through the United States and United Kingdom in 2007. In 2010, they issued Spot the Difference, an album of newly recorded versions of older material. The band's first album of all-new material since 1998, 2015's 'Cradle to the Grave, became their highest-charting album of original material (i.e., excluding "greatest hits" compilations) in the UK. The band continues to record and release new music, including The Knowledge (2017) and Trixies (2026), as well as tour.
