10cc’s GRAHAM GOULDMAN ‘Heart Full of Songs’ comes to Lincoln’s Drill Hall on Tuesday 20th October 2026!
For lovers of perfectly-crafted music performed by the composer, a Heart Full of Songs concert is truly an exquisite experience.
When 10cc co-founder Graham Gouldman formed what became Heart Full of Songs more than a decade ago, it was purely for the pleasure of laying the songs he wrote or co-wrote in their simplest form, acoustically.
It started as a three-piece supporting at 10cc concerts and quickly evolved into a stand-alone entity. These days Heart Full of Songs is a semi-acoustic/electric, four-piece with its next UK tour set for October 2026, comprising 18 concerts and culminating at London’s Cadogan Hall on 29 October.
Featuring material from across Graham’s catalogue, the set includes such classics as 10cc’s I’m Not In Love and Dreadlock Holiday; Bus Stop and Look Through Any Window, which were hits for The Hollies; For Your Love and Heart Full of Soul (the Yardbirds); No Milk Today (Herman’s Hermits); Bridge To Your Heart from his time with the late Andrew Gold as Wax, along with songs from film soundtracks and his solo albums.
Acknowledgement of Graham’s achievements has been growing more widely too, with him awarded an MBE in the 2025 King’s Birthday Honours list, for services to music.
Also underpinning his position as one of the world’s leading songwriters were the guest contributors on his latest album, I have Notes. They include Ringo Starr, Brian May, Hank Marvin and Albert Lee.
“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,” says Graham. “With Keith Hayman, Andy Park and BenStone we have a fantastic band that presents the songs with passion and to the highest musical standards. I couldn’t ask for more.”
The increasing success of Heart Full of Songs shows how ever more people are keen to share the magic of the music with its composer.
