Born from the love and the respect for the music of Dire Straits, the DSL Dire Straits Legacy project puts together again on stage several of the artists who made unique the legendary sound of the British Band, together with World Top Class Musicians. 

The legends of British rock, Dire Straits have sold over 120 million albums worldwide. Today DSL Dire Straits Legacy bring back their iconic music, performed by the musicians who recorded and toured with Dire Straits, over 30 years ago. Alan Clark was Dire Straits’ first keyboardist, Phil Palmer and Danny Cummings both recorded On Every Street, Mel Collins on singles Love Over Gold and Twisting by the Pool. All have performed live with Dire Straits on multiple global tours. Other DSL members include George Michael‘s bassist Steve Walters, the drummer Cristiano Micalizzi, Primiano Di Biase, Europe’s most in-demand and sought-after keyboardist, and last but not least frontman Marco Caviglia who is widely regarded as the world’s leading authority on Mark Knopfler’s unique guitar-playing style. Drawing from six platinum albums, DSL’s incredible live show features all of the classic Dire Straits’ hits including Money for Nothing, Sultans of Swing, Romeo and Juliet, Walk of Life, Brothers in Arms, Tunnel of Love and many more.

Killer Queen’s first public shows were at London University, following in the footsteps of the real Queen who had played their first shows there decades earlier. Killer Queen’s UK popularity grew to such an extent they soon secured a residency in London’s Strand Theatre attracting nationwide BBC coverage – the first tribute to have a show in the WestEnd. The band’s reputation continued to grow both in the UK and abroad leading to an awards ceremony in Leicester Square, hosted by Suggs from Madness who presented them with the award for “Worldwide Best Tribute Band”. They also scored a number one hit when they were asked to recreate Queen’s harmonies for “The Real Life” with Fatboy Slim. By now they were in demand in European arenas playing Ahoy and Forest National Arena where Queen filmed the concert set piece videos such as Hammer To Fall and Don’t Stop Me Now. Killer Queen then joined forces with Bjorn Again and The Bootleg Beatles for a Waverley Stadium show in Edinburgh. It was this performance that led to the band being selected to represent Queen in a re-staged tribute LiveAid concert held by Sir Bob Geldof in Malta. They performed with him at his arena charity concert to raise funds for the young homeless people. Killer Queen set their sights on America including the awe-inspiring Red Rocks Arena in Colorado– one of the country’s most prestigious venues. The Beatles, Springsteen, U2 have all played there and the band are delighted it’s become a regular sell out fixture on Killer Queen’s tour sheet. The group continues to tour throughout Europe and the United States.

The Spinners are one of the most iconic and enduring groups in R&B history. With a towering legacy spanning over six decades, The Spinners have never lost their universal appeal, as evidenced most recently by the group’s long-awaited induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2023.

The quintet created and came to define the smooth sound of Philadelphia Soul, channeling the highs and lows of romance and heartbreak into a catalog of classic hits, beloved across generations. Throughout the years the Spinners remained perched atop the Pop, R&B, and Adult Contemporary Charts, with smash singles like “I’ll Be Around,” “Could It Be I’m Falling In Love,” “Then Came You,” “The Rubberband Man” and many more – earning six Grammy nominations, 18 Platinum and Gold Albums, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and selling millions of records worldwide in the process. Their legendary repertoire has earned a permanent place in the American songbook.
