Dire Straits
Dire Straits were a British rock band from Newcastle, United Kingdom, formed in 1977 by Mark Knopfler (guitar and vocals), his brother David Knopfler (guitar), John Illsley (bass), and Pick Withers (drums), and subsequently managed by Ed Bicknell. The band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018. Dire Straits emerged during the post-punk era of the late '70s, and while their sound was minimalistic and stripped down, they owed little to punk.

This Thing That Binds Us
Hi, this is my new progressive rock track. It's like musical theatre for rock fans. Lots of orchestral instrumentation mixed with heavy guitars and drums plus a touch of electronica. It's a journey of a song so it's hard to gauge it from thirty seconds of listening. If you think it's good, please like and follow on youTube or Spotify. It's really hard to get a following! I will reward you handsomely in the next life! Lyrics by my wife Mandi, the rest by me. Vocals courtesy of Solaria and Saros - if you know, you know!more
