For lovers of ‘Straits’, and Mark Knopfler in general, this show should be a ‘must see’ and will contain many of the well known classics – Sultans of Swing, Romeo and Juliet, Tunnel of Love etc – as well as some deeper cuts … or in the band’s own words: “performing some of the best music that Dire Straits ever created“.
Since 2019, the band have been faithfully recreating the sound and spirit of one of the most iconic rock bands of the ’80s with a passion for the music and attention to detail and always “aim to give fans the experience of seeing Dire Straits live” … and you can’t argue with that!

The power trio – also featuring Mickey Barker on drums and James Hoskins on bass – plays original material along with a smattering of classic rock (Highway to Hell and Freebird have been known to put in an appearance, among others) and blues covers with their own twist – or in their words, “blues/rock played with more psychedelic experience and imagination than most“ – and we have enjoyed many great gigs from them over the years at JJJ.
We can guarantee this show will be one not to miss!

Bromsgrove’s very own Skabucks formed in 2008, have well over 1000 gigs under their belts, and have enjoyed a career that has seen them work with The Pogues, The Move and members of The Specials and play at many large music festivals as headline act.
Playing classic hits from the original 60’s Ska and the revival Two-Tone era, the irresistible rhythms and in-your-face, rock-steady beat of Skabucks comes complete with a no-quibble guarantee to get everyone on the floor or, as the band put it, Skabucks are “badass mother-funkers delivering the top end of maximum Ska and Two-Tone” … and you can’t argue with that!
