They have a new single and album out which they premiered on the BBC’s One Show last week. 10cc hit their peak in the 1970s with I’m not in love and Wakll Street . The band initially consisted of four musicians—Graham Gouldman, Eric Stewart, Kevin Godley, and Lol Creme—who had written and recorded together for some three years, before assuming the “10cc” name in 1972. 10cc consisted of two strong songwriting teams, one ‘commercial’ and one ‘artistic’, but both teams injected sharp wit into lyrically dextrous and musically varied songs. Stewart and Gouldman were predominantly pop-song-writers, who created most of the band’s most commercial songs. Godley and Creme were the predominantly experimental half of 10cc, featuring an Art School sensibility who graduated to video production. Falkirk Grahamston is the nearest railway station .
