About Dire Straits
Dire Straits were one of the major guitar-based bands of the late 70s.
Despite forming at the height of Punk, front man Mark Knopfler’s distinctive guitar picking style gave the band an alternative and instantly recognisable sound.
The band reached its peak in the mid 80s playing larger venues including a memorable slot at Live Aid.
So far record sales have reached over 100 million worldwide and Knopfler is still regarded as one of the finest guitarists and songwriters this country has produced.
