VISITORS to the Palace Theatre in Redditch can experience the authentic sound of one of the biggest guitar bands of all time this weekend.

Dire Streets have been playing to audiences in the UK and abroad for more than eight years and are marked as one of the stand-out Dire Straits tribute bands in the country.

The group, fronted by finger picking guitar ace John Brunsdon, is now heading to Redditch for a full two-hour show accompanied by Steve Wiltshire on sax and flute.

The show takes place at the Palace Theatre on Saturday, April 7, from 7.30pm, with tickets costing £19 inclusive of a booking fee.
