Graham Gouldman — the celebrated songwriter behind 10cc and numerous hits for other artists — has just revealed his most ambitious Heart Full of Songs tour to date. The 2026 run will see him perform in a semi-acoustic format, revisiting a vast catalogue of songs he’s written throughout his long and varied career.
In this latest tour, Gouldman won’t just dust off 10cc classics; he’ll also play songs he wrote for legendary acts like The Yardbirds (“For Your Love”), Herman’s Hermits (“No Milk Today”), and Jeff Beck (“Tallyman”). He’ll even perform tracks from his solo projects and from his time in Wax, the band he formed with the late songwriter Andrew Gold.
Gouldman expressed his gratitude and excitement about the tour, saying:
“It is extremely gratifying to do what I love, performing the songs I’ve written or co‑written over the years, to audiences who really appreciate them in a semi-acoustic format.”
He also praised his band for helping bring his songs to life: “With Keith Hayman, Andy Park and Ben Stone we have a fantastic band that presents the songs with passion and to the highest musical standards. I couldn’t ask for more.”
Notably, Gouldman was honored earlier in 2025 when he was awarded an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours for his contributions to music.
