The Beat Featuring Ranking Jnr

The Beat featuring Ranking Jnr are making their Middlesbrough Town Hall debut!

The band crossed over fluidly between soul, reggae, pop and punk, and from these disparate pieces they created an infectious dance rhythm.

Along with their contemporaries The Specials, The Selecter, and Madness, The Beat became an overnight sensation and one of the most popular and influential bands of the British ska movement.

The band toured the world, touring with such artists as David Bowie, The Police, REM, The Clash, The Talking Heads, The Pretenders, and The Specials, to name but a few.

The Beat featuring Ranking Jnr continue to perform all the classic hits in their dynamic live shows.
