Mark Freuder Knopfler was born on August 12th 1949, in Glasgow, Scotland (UK). He is a rock and blues-rock guitarist and singer-songwriter.

Mark is well recognized for his role in band Dire Straits, who formed in 1977, where he was the lead guitarist and vocalist. The band broke up in 1995 where Mark decided to embark on various other projects. This includes being in other bands including, the ‘Notting Hillbillies’.

However, after the break up of Dire Straits, Mark Knopfler propelled straightforward into a solo career. In 1996 e released his debut album, titled, ‘Golden Heart’. Following the success of his debut album, Mark had a breakthrough in the year 2000 once he released his second album, named, ‘Sailing to Philadelphia’.

The Scottish artist impressively also collaborated with the likes of highly regarded singers, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton and Chet Atkins. Furthermore, the talented Mark also went on to produce various albums for singers comprising of, Tina Turner, Randy Newman, and Bob Dylan. In addition, he has scored the music to several films, including Local Hero, The Princess Bride, Comfort and Joy, Cal, Last Exit to Brooklyn and Wag the Dog.

The Glaswegian picked up great success and released further albums including, ‘The Ragpicker’s Dream’ in 2002 and ‘Shangri-La’ in 2004. A tour was to follow, however, unfortunately a motorcycle accident resulted in the tour being postponed for a whole year.

Mark Knopfler was positioned 27th on Rolling Stone magazine's list of 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.

Live reviews

Casa cheia no Estádio Municipal de Oeiras para o regresso de Mark Knopfler a Portugal em mais uma etapa do Festival EDPCoolJazz. Apesar de trazer um disco novo, o concerto foi bem distribuído pelos discos mais recentes a solo, ficando a segunda metade reservada para passagens gloriosas por alguns dos maiores hinos dos Dire Straits.

Depois de ter passado por Alvalade e Faro com os Dire Straits, Knopfler já visitou o Porto, Cascais, duas vezes o Pavilhão Atlântico e duas vezes o Campo Pequeno. O regresso foi em Oeiras onde deu o seu concerto em nome próprio com alinhamento mais equilibrado e bem conseguido. Visivelmente bem disposto, muito comunicativo e seguro que as escolhas musicais para esta digressão não desiludem nem fãs nem nostálgicos ocasionais.

Apesar de ter editado um novo disco recentemente, Mark já assinou mais discos a solo do que com os Dire Straits, o concerto não é focado em temas novos. A primeira metade da noite é dedicada a três canções de cada um dos seus dois últimos álbuns.

«Broken Bones» de «Tracker» abre da melhor maneira o alinhamento que segue com três músicas do penúltimo disco, o duplo «Privateering». «Corned Beef City», «Privateering» e «Hill Farmer's Blues». Uma sequência que mostra a excelência dos músicos que acompanham Mark, uma viagem por sons tão próximos do blues, folk e country como dos ambientes celtas pontuados por flautas ou gaitas de foles e violinos. Depois, volta a «Tracker» para tocar «Skydiver», onde mostrou empenho em ter a plateia a cantar consigo. Nunca tínhamos visto Knopfler tão orgulhoso de uma composição nova como esta noite. «Laughs and Jokes and Drinks and Smokes» fechou a viagem pelos dois registos mais recentes. Pelo meio não passou despercebida uma visita ao baú, uma maravilhosa recuperação instrumental de «Father and Son» recuperada da banda sonora de Cal de 1984.

Tempo para deliciar os fãs com arranque imediato para «Romeo and Juliet» e a sua guitarra prateada a luzir. Sem pausas e já com a guitarra vermelha e branca a terminar esta primeira passagem pelos Dire Straits, ataque ao hino «Sultans of Swing». Telemóveis ao alto, cabeças em baixo e algum air guitar para acompanhar o tema que deve ser um dos grandes responsáveis por Knopfler continuar a encher estádios em 2015.

O acompanhamento vocal do público às notas de saxofone em «Your Latest Trick» comprova o acerto da escolha do tema do célebre disco «Brothers in Arms».

Com o público conquistado, Mark Knopfler partia para as últimas três canções antes do encore. Promoveu duas músicas de discos a solo mais antigos que há muito pediam para figurar entre os grandes clássicos do guitarrista. «Postcards From Paraguay», do disco «Shangri-La», tem como introdução lenta a apresentação individual da banda. Em crescendo arranca para uma festa tropical instrumental própria de uma noite de verão.

Segue-se «Speedway at Nazareth», de «Sailing to Philadelfia», uma cavalgada instrumental poderosa que fica mesmo a pedir a entrada do épico «Telegraph Road», digno de fechar o alinhamento em grande estilo.

O encore foi mais um rebuçado para o nostálgicos, «So Far Away» em versão monocórdica e um final instrumental com o grandioso «Going Home: Theme From Local Hero».

Não houve «Brothers in Arms», nem «What it Is», presenças habituais em alinhamentos anteriores mas ficámos a ganhar com a interpretação de «Your Latest Trick» e «Telegraph Road» a soarem melhor que nunca. O mesmo já não podemos dizer de «Sultans of Swing» ou «So Far Away», por exemplo, a perderem pedalada com o passar do tempo, embora sempre dignas.

A caminho dos 66 anos, MarkKnopfler está impecável em palco e atingiu quase a perfeição na escolha equilibrada de um alinhamento onde se percebe que tem tantos clássicos a solo como aqueles que deixou nosDireStraits. Isto é proeza só ao alcance de alguns.

Report as inappropriate

Still a bit gobsmacked with how good Mark Knopfler and band were last night. It’s all a product of Mark’s brilliant songwriting, arrangement, playing, production, and most of all his imagination. Mark is a storyteller in the truest sense and he inhabits his characters to a depth not unlike Kate Bush or Tom Waits. I often feel like he understands American and world history better than most of the natives.

His band are monsters on their respective instruments, and in most cases that’s three or more instruments each. The tour lineup includes Mark Knopfler (guitar, vocals), Guy Fletcher (keyboards), Richard Bennett (guitar), Glenn Worf (bass), Jim Cox (piano, organ, accordion), Ian Thomas (drums), John McCusker (violin, cittern), and Michael McGoldrick (whistles, uilleann pipes). Nigel Hitchcock (saxophone).

This band can cover any genre and create any dynamic. Majestic is a great old venue (I’m deliberately not talking about the seats), and the sound was excellent. High marks for the Dallas audience as they all seemed to be real Knopfler fans and not just the socialites that sometimes inundate these shows (not looking at you, ATT PAC).

Another really cool feature of this and the last few tours is that Mark offers the board recordings on little guitar shaped USB sticks a few months after the show. As this was a great performance (even according to Richard Bennett on his blog), this live recording should be a keeper.

There is something so wonderful about Mark Knopflers style of guitar playing. His style along with the tone of his guitar makes his music instantly recognisable.

A ‘Music Makers’ evening with Mark Knopfler was an amazing example of his talents. A tiny stage housed Mark and 5 other musicians. This was’t a conventional performance, it was laid back and personal. Very different to the stadium performances he used to do with Dire Straits. They started off with a simple instrumental before playing ‘Sailing To Philadelphia'. Then the story telling started, he told the audience about how he came to be a musician and how his musical talents evolved. Stories of his childhood made the audience smile and laugh and the performance of each song brought about a hearty applause.

He performed a range of songs and described what inspired them, he even gave the audience a little guitar lesson, showing how he created the riffs and gave an insight into the songwriting process.

He played big hits such as ‘Sultans of Swing,' Juliet’ and ‘Brothers In Arms’, as well as a number of folk tracks that he said were a big inspiration to him as he began as a musician. All in all it was a wonderful evening! The stories he told were Interesting, funny, and insightful and the performances of his songs were flawless.

It's always great expectations for a Mark Knopfler concert. He's been generating amazing music for a long time - it's hard to believe that it's been 37 years since "Sultans of Swing" and those fancy, memorable licks - and gone in more than a few interesting musical directions, from Dire Straits rock to Scottish country folk.

The show in Milwaukee on Wednesday night gave his fans a sample of his (and his band's) incredible versatility and four-decades long catalog.

(The set list is posted here: http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/mark-knopfler/2015/riverside-theater-milwaukee-wi-3f43543.html).

His band has expanded to 8 members now. His introduction of bass player Glenn Worf (who grew up in Madison and attended UW-Eau Claire) drew a loud applause.

Mr. Knopfler's banter was funny and informative. In reference to Milwaukee being the home of Harley Davidson and his fondness for motorcycles, he announced he was "still growing up."

As expected, it was an evening of outstanding music, the eclectic mix chosen from an amazing career of innovation and creativity. It's not a stretch to say he remains one of the finest living guitarists.

Four time Grammy award winner Mark Knopfler OBE is one of Britain's most critically acclaimed artists having been awarded the Edison Award, the Steiger Award and the Ivor Novello Award. At the age of 65, he continues to tour globally to his loyal fan base.

Mark has enjoyed a successful solo career since the release of his debut album 'Golden Heart' in 1996 following the demise of Dire Straits. His set lists now accumulate his extensive solo work, a variety of Dire Strait's greatest hits and covers by his many collaborators such as Emmylou Harris and Chet Atkins.

The audience is delighted with a performance of 'I Dug Up a Diamond', Mark's track with Emmylou.

Part of the appeal of seeing Knopfler live is to witness his incredible guitar playing abilities, his fingers move at lightening pace during a Dire Straits cover 'Romeo and Juliet'. By a blistering finale of 'Our Shangri-La' the audience have been well and truly schooled as to why the artist has been awarded by so many esteemed organisations.

Since I am a gigantic Dire Straits fan, I really wanted to go to Mark Knopfler's concert, even though his new music isn't like his songs back from the Dire Straits time. I have to admit that some of his new songs weren't for me at all, but a few of them were cleverly made and give his bandmembers (and Mark himself of course) a wonderful chance to showcase their talents. Some of his bandmembers played up to 5 different instruments during the show!

I was also glad that he performed a few Dire Straits songs, including his legendary 'Sultans of Swing' with his infamous guitarsolo at the end.

All and all it was a fantastic show and I enjoyed very much, even though my cousin and I were pretty much the youngest fans out there with our fifteen years of age!

Mark Knopfler is obviously still really good at what he does and he found himself a band with members equally as talented as him!

This is the second time I've seen Mark Knopfler and both times he has been fantastic!

An evening with Mark makes a large venue feel like a pub gig due to his warm vibes and friendly banter. Over the course of his career, Mark has gained a reputation as one of the finest guitar players of all time and this shines alongside his world class band.

Together Mark and the band execute the latest songs with energy and precision, whilst his golden-oldies such as 'Sultans of Swing', 'Local Hero', 'So Far Away' and 'Telegraph Road' have been given a new, but fantastic lease of life due to the addition of folk instruments from the likes of John McCusker and Mike McGoldrick.

I can't recommend a Mark Knopfler gig enough to both old die-hard fans and new music lovers a like.

Mark Knopfler show was incredible. He is simply "in my opinion" the best guitarist, loved to see his hand gliding on the cords. He also as a great band and it was super that he let them have their own moment of glory during the show, so cool! I was very happy with his list of songs for the show, I know he said we could ask for a song but they will not give a damn and frankly it was not necessary as he made a great range of popular songs from Dire Strait time to now and all of My best songs were there Wouhou! Place des Arts Salle Wilfrid Pelletier is the best as it is not too big and everyone is close enough to see the band, and the sound was going strait to the heart, what a feeling. Great show to remember for a long time. Many Many thanks to Mark Knopfler and is band.

Mark Knopfler - Heinz Hall, Pittsburgh, PA 10/13/15

From the moment Mark and the band took the stage, musicianship stood center stage. Mark flowed through the setlist effortlessly covering new and old and even dipping into the far past with a couple of Dire Straits selection. His guitar prowess was front and center but the talents of the band members were highlighted throughout. Each musician played multiple instruments and flowed from jazz to rock to Celtic influences. The acoustic instrumentation was clear even at subdued volumes. If you were a Mark Knopfler fan you went away satisfied as Mark came out for two encores.

Great concert.

It's not Dire Straits but it's not meant to be. However he does indulge the audience with Romeo and Juliette, Sultans of Swing and a belter of a version of Telegraph Road. Some of the best and most effortless guitar play I have had the privilege to witness. The band are all extremely talented and provide great support to a great artist. If you want Dire Straits you are many years too late, if you want an outstanding guitarist having a good time and sharing it with a relatively small audience then you will have a great evening.

Prepare for an extraordinary musical journey this January as Dire Straits Legacy   and  Nazareth  unite for an unmissable series of shows along Australia’s east coast.

Dire Straits Legacy (DSL) features many key original members of Dire Straits who contributed towards their unique sound as well as recording and touring with Dire Straits, becoming integral contributors to their success, selling over 120 million albums world-wide and becoming a household name.

Comprised of a second to none ensemble, Dire Straits Legacy features; Alan Clark, Dire Straits’ first keyboardist, Grammy Award winner and Rock’n’Roll Hall of Fame inductee 2018. Phil Palmer & Danny Cummings both of whom recorded the fabulous “On Every Street” and Mel Collins who played saxophone on “Love Over Gold” & “Twisting By The Pool”. All of these fantastic players performed live with Dire Straits on multiple global tours.

The DSL line-up is completed by Primiano Di Biase, Europe’s most in-demand and sought-after keyboardist, George Michael’s bassist Steve Walters, drummer Alex Polifrone and last but not least frontman Marco Caviglia who is widely regarded as the world’s leading authority on Mark Knopfler’s unique guitar-playing style.

Joining Dire Straits Legacy are the legendary   NAZARETH .

Rising out of the pubs, clubs and dance halls of their native Scotland in 1970, Nazareth became one of the most successful rock bands in the world! Pioneers, they paved the way for the many other great Scottish bands like Simple Minds, Texas, Big Country, Del Amitri and more.

With hits spanning five decades including: ‘Broken Down Angel’, ‘Bad Bad Boy’, ‘Turn On Your Receiver’, ‘My White Bicycle’ plus mega hits, ‘Dream On’, ‘This Flight Tonight’,  Hair Of The Dog’ and of course, one of the most iconic ballads ever, the timeless ‘ Love Hurts ‘

Nazareth have released an incredible 25 studio albums across the span of their career and their influence can be felt all the way to the top of rock music’s food chain, evidenced by both Guns ’N’ Roses and Metallica having covering their songs.

The ultimate road dogs, Nazareth plan on touring until the very end.

In 2024 the band consists of bass player and founding member Pete Agnew, Jimmy Murrison, the longest serving guitarist in Nazareth’s history, Lee Agnew, drummer since Darrel Sweet’s death in 1999 and Carl Sentance vocalist since 2015 after Dan McCafferty retired.
