About
When The Beat rushed onto the music scene in 1979, it was a time of social, political, and musical upheaval. Into this storm came The Beat, trying to calm the waters with their simple message of love and unity set to a great dance beat. The Beat was all about inclusion, and this showed in their personnel and their musical influences. The band crossed over fluidly between soul, reggae, pop, and punk, and from these, they created an infectious dance rhythm. They became an overnight sensation and one of the most popular and influential bands of the British Two-Tone Ska movement. Consummate showman that he is, Dave Wakeling has continued to keep The Beat alive and strong. Dave continues to tour the world as The English Beat with an amazing all-star ska backing band playing all the hits of The Beat, General Public, and his new songs.
