New Music: You Get The Feeling

            

Squeeze are back with a brand new album Trixies and with the release of the evocative acoustic scene setter single "You Get The Feeling". One of 2026’s most anticipated albums Trixies is the band’s first album in eight years but the first they ever wrote. A collection of stories set in a fictional night club Trixies, the album was written by the band’s founders teenage Chris Difford (19) and Glenn Tilbrook (16) at the very start of their songwriting partnership. Back in 1974, when Trixies was written, the musical vision of the young creators exceeded their virtuosity. “We fully committed ourselves to songwriting but this was three or four years before we even got to make our first record. Long story short, these were songs that we just didn’t have enough musical experience to record properly” explains Difford. Now, fifty years on, that problem no longer exists for the band who have played more than 600 shows since reuniting in 2007. “The original version of You Get The Feeling was more like an old blues song” recalls Tilbrook. “It took me 50 years to figure out how to do it justice!”.  The video was directed by Oska Zaky and Connie Virdie
