Glenn Tilbrook – One For The Road
For those that are too young to remember, Glen Tilbrook was the lead singer of Squeeze – one of the best bands to come out of Britain in the late 1970s – who, with singer/guitarist Chris Difford, was briefly hailed as the new Lennon and McCartney.
Squeeze were resonsible for 21 UK hits and were able to headline New York’s 20,000-seat Madison Square Garden until they finally broke up in 1999.
But Tilbrook’s still going, although he now tours in a beat up camper van with a staff of one – his manager and wife, Suzanne Hunt.
Filmmaker, Amy Pickard was inspired. And in 2001 she joined him for his month long tour of the US. The result is Glenn Tilbrook – One For The Road which premiered at London’s Raindance film festival in 2004 and is now available on DVD.
