There’s an exciting gig coming to Wellington this week – especially if your heydey was in the 70s.

10cc is returning to the capital on Friday night to play a gig at the Opera House, performing classic hits like The Things We Do For Love, Dreadlock Holiday and I'm Not In Love.

10cc was formed in 1972 - after frontman and songwriter Graham Gouldman had begun his career writing hits for The Hollies and Herman’s Hermits.

The band has had twelve songs reach the UK Top 40 - including three number-one hits.

Gouldman joined Nick Mills to discuss the band's legacy and the inspiration behind their biggest hits.

10cc perform at the Wellington Opera House this Friday, July 11. Tickets from Ticketmaster.
