Performer Information

The English Beat is a 2 Tone ska and new wave band from Birmingham, England whose high-energy, danceable sound has moved crowds since 1978. The English Beat tour continues to pack clubs, theaters, and festivals with fans ready to skank along to timeless hits. Rising out of the late-’70s British 2 Tone movement, they broke through with the UK Top 10 single “Mirror in the Bathroom.”

Their debut, I Just Can't Stop It (1980), hit the UK Top 5 and introduced signature tracks that defined their blend of ska rhythms and pop hooks. Follow-up album Wha'ppen? (1981) also reached the UK Top 5, expanding their sonic palette. Special Beat Service (1982) brought U.S. hits and broadened their audience, while Here We Go Love (2018) marked a triumphant studio return led by founding singer-guitarist Dave Wakeling. Across their catalog, they scored multiple UK Top 40 singles.

Today, The English Beat—also known as The Beat—maintain a strong live following thanks to spirited performances and songs built for the dancefloor. They’ve toured with fellow 2 Tone favorites and continue to light up stages across North America and beyond. A The English Beat concert channels call-and-response vocals, taut ska grooves, and communal, feel-good energy.
