10cc will be returning to the U.S. with the “Ultimate Ultimate Greatest Hits” tour, kicking off in late summer 2025. The run follows last year’s acclaimed series of concerts, the band’s first U.S. tour in over 30 years. The touring lineup, once again led by founding member Graham Gouldman, will perform a set featuring timeless favorites like “I’m Not In Love,” “The Things We Do For Love” and “Rubber Bullets”. Tickets for the U.S. shows as well as concerts in Australia, New Zealand and Europe are available here.
[In addition, Gouldman has announced U.K. tour dates for his highly acclaimed semi-acoustic show “Heart Full of Songs” for September, in which he performs songs from his celebrated back catalog, including chart hits for 10cc, The Hollies, Herman’s Hermits, The Yardbirds, Wax and selected tracks from his solo albums, including his latest, I Have Notes. Gouldman will be backed by 10cc bandmates Keith Hayman and Andy Park, with Dave Cobby and Ben Stone each doing percussion for three of the concerts. Gouldman formed what became Heart Full of Songs eleven years ago, purely for the pleasure of playing his songs acoustically, and the format has since proved so popular that he now tours the show across the UK every two years, in between his sold-out 10cc tours. Tickets for these dates will be available on June 6 at 10 a.m. local time here.]
Written by Gouldman and Eric Stewart and released in 1975, “I’m Not In Love” was prominently featured in the soundtrack to the 2014 blockbuster film, Guardians of the Galaxy. 10cc’s 1978 song, “Dreadlock Holiday,” was a key element of the soundtrack to 2010’s The Social Network.
“After not having toured the U.S. for more than three decades, last year’s tour was a remarkable experience,” says Gouldman. “We’re used to our regular audiences across Europe, Australia and New Zealand, but the reaction of the American audiences took us completely by surprise – it was incredible. We are really looking forward to our return and playing new venues this year.”

Jump into a conversationWhen 10cc played the Keswick Theatre in 2024, Graham Gouldman said it was their first US tour in 46 years!
The 2024 show in Montclair NJ was absolutely great ! I had been enjoying their hits on WNEW but never got to see them live until last year.
