Biddulph Up In Arms tells us: 'The countdown is on towards one of the biggest and most exciting gigs in our history when Glenn Tilbrook is our guest at Biddulph Town Hall next Wednesday (March 3) at 8pm. As lead singer with classic pop outfit Squeeze he is the man responsible (with Chris Difford) for a string of memorable hits, including two narrowly missing the top spot (I bet you can name them!?). A great voice, a truly wonderful performer and another major coup for the area. Support comes from country-influenced singer songwriter Angie Palmer.'

Tickets are £15 and available by contacting Eric Cox on 01782-514896 or by visiting either Congleton Tourist Information Centre or A and A Music, Music Mania in Hanley or Bridge St Music in Newcastle.
