Dire Straits / Mark Knopfler

Dire Straits emerged in 1977 with a stripped-back, pub-rock sensibility that quickly evolved into something far grander—culminating in Brothers in Arms (1985), one of the best-selling albums of all time and a landmark of the CD era.

Mark Knopfler's fingerstyle guitar work and storytelling prowess defined classics like "Sultans of Swing," "Money for Nothing," and "Romeo and Juliet," earning the band multiple Grammy Awards and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Beyond Dire Straits, Knopfler's solo career has been equally prolific and critically acclaimed. Albums like Golden Heart, Sailing to Philadelphia, and Privateering showcase his gift for cinematic narratives and roots-driven arrangements, while his film scores—including Local Hero and The Princess Bride—reveal a composer of rare depth.
