The English Beat is currently touring across 3 countries and has 41 upcoming concerts.
Their next tour date is at Big Room, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. in Chico, after that they'll be at Uptown Theatre Napa in Napa.
See all your opportunities to see them live below!The English Beat are by far the best of the two-tone era ska bands!
They not only have an amazing ska tone, but also a punk & new wave vibe. They definitely have a lot of energy which exudes to the crowd, Dave is always smiling involved with the crowd.
The English Beat’s tender side was apparent as well with songs like " Can't get Use to Losing You" and "To Nice to Talk To" Even though Dave will make quirky faces during the songs to have fun with it!
The English Beat are definitely a band you can see over and over again and never tire from their performance.
I saw them the first time around in 1983 and again
at the OC Fair Hangar on July 19, 2019 and they were as expected - awesome! The place was hopping and dancing from the opening beat to the final beat - no one bothered to use their seats - and this is typical of all Beat concerts! Had a blast and will try to keep seeing them whenever I can.
Only downside - the horn section can easily be expanded; although the trumpeteer is awesome, I was spoiled with the Beat’s huge horn section back in the day!
I highly recommend that you never miss their show if they play in your area.
Dave and the band came out and were full of energy as soon as they came on stage. The crowd could feel it was going to be a great performance. The music set was planned out very well.
My brother and I stood right up as close as you can get.With every song the crowd was hopping right along with them.They played all the favorites,plus ones from a new album.
Ace of Spades is a really cool venue to see a concert.You are in close proximity with whoever plays there. Plenty of room and bars to drink from.Even though you are standing the whole time. Never felt tired or sore. I must say, if you were ever a Beat or SKA fan. you have to go see them in concert.
