There are groups that time preserves and that popular memory even tends to sublimate. Dire Straits is part of the circle. So, to make this English jewel shine to eternal lifeChris White decided to bring the band’s most beautiful songs back to life for Mark Knopfler.
Rock flagshipDire Straits is a joyful “industrial accident” as sometimes happens on British soil. Because no one, ever, would have believed for a time that these wild young adults from Deptford were going to rock the speakers of the free world, going against the trends of the time. With Mark Knopfler as frontman, the group has succeeded in putting on an English-style rock which, obviously, will never die.
Musical nuggets
Their bold melodies still resonate today, carried by the crystalline sound of the Knopfler Fender Stratocaster. Their efficiency is gut-wrenching and their wandering state of mind makes you want to run away from the cash register. What is good to do crack the vinylsas the music of Dire Straits remains alive. But the scent of the scene we sometimes miss being able to remain immersed, for centuries and centuries, in this spirit which gives balm to the heart.
SO Chris Whiteformer playing partner of Mark Knopfler, decided to take matters into his own hands and put on his costume to pay a faithful tribute to his friends of yesteryear. With him, time seems to have frozen, as if immobile, in ecstasy and admiration, in front of the musical nuggets of these heroes from the suburbs of London.
Sultans of swing, Walk of life…
Certainly, under the spotlights, the men are not the same, but everything is respected to the letter, as if to rekindle a flame ready to set our world ablaze. second youth. The crazy energy of yesterday combines with the present, under the weight of these masterful riffs which have made the reputation of Dire Straits.
We then celebrate the work, transcended by Sultans of swing or Walk of life. What a pleasure to breathe this British air which makes you fly, leap after leap, meters above the ground. More than a tribute band, The Dire Straits Experience therefore revisits the most beautiful chapters of the quartet’s crazy adventure. And it’s happening at the Zénith in Toulouse, Friday November 15, 2024 at 8 p.m.
