Money for Nothing was formed in 2000 as a tribute to one of the world’s premier rock bands – Dire Straits. The abundant energy, excellence and musicality of their performance makes Money For Nothing a ‘must see’ for any rock enthusiast or Dire Straits fan.
Fronting the band is the outstanding Howie G (who you may recognise from his years with The Classic Rock Show). Behind him the line-up features top-class and experienced musicians that make this band a worthy tribute to Dire Straits. Howie and the experienced musicians that make this band have studied Dire Straits in great depth to re-create their tribute to be as respectful and close as possible to the real thing as possible.
Featuring all the hits from their first ever single ‘Sultans of Swing’ to ‘Brothers in Arms’, ‘Walk of Life’ and their last single released in 1992 ‘The Bug’ – also the legendary ‘Money For Nothing’ (ft Sting) which was the first ever video played on MTV. The band also include versions from ‘On the Night’ and ‘Live @ The BBC’.
