Event Information:Shows Are Standing Room OnlyThe English Beat is a band with an energetic mix of musical styles and a sound like no other. The bands unique sound has allowed it to endure for nearly four decades and appeal to fans, young and old, all over the world.When The English Beat (known as The Beat in their native England) rushed on to the music scene in 1979, it was a time of massive social and political unrest and economic and musical upheaval. This set the stage for a period of unbridled musical creativity, and thanks in large part to the Punk movement and its DIY approach to making music, artists like The Beat were able to speak out and speak their mind on the news of the day, as in Stand Down Margaret, things that mattered to them and the youth culture, as in Get A Job, and universal matters of the heart and soul, as in their classic hits I Confess and Save It For Later.The Beat first came to prominence as founding members of the British Two Tone Ska movement, with their classic first album Just Cant Stop It fitting squarely in that genre. Along with their contemporaries The Specials, The Selecter, and Madness, the band became an overnight sensation and one of the most popular and influential bands of that movement.However, band leader Dave Wakeling never felt constrained by the movement. The band crossed over fluidly between soul, reggae, pop and punk, and from these disparate pieces they created an infectious dance rhythm. The bands sound continued to evolve over their three studio albums, through the General Public era (a band formed by Dave with The Beats toaster, Ranking Roger), and it has continued its evolution with the album Here We Go Love, Consummate showman that he is, Dave Wakeling continues to keep The Beat alive and strong, touring the world as The English Beat with an amazing all-star ska backing band playing all the hits of The Beat and General Public!You just cant stop The English Beat!
