Dire Straits Telegraph Road featuring Glenn Skuthorpe
About
Attempting to play the music of Dire Straits is a risky business.Turns out Glenn Skuthorpe’s delivery style is very much suited to playing Dire Straits music. Whether he subconsciously picked up the Knopfler way from hours of listening to him or it was just inherent in who he was doesn’t really matter. What matters is that is he has that same ability to deliver a vocal full of rich melody in that low almost semi-spoken way, and to play the guitar with emphasis on accuracy and tone rather than volume and speed. No shenanigans; no ‘look at me’ theatrics – just solid musicianship with a great feel.
Supported by a great band who clearly really enjoyed playing these songs, Skuthorpe and co delivered an excellent show.

We are very lucky to have scored Glenn and his full band for their first time in the Clare Valley to tribute Dire Staits like no other!
