The Beat were undoubtedly one of the most original bands the UK has produced. Their unique mix of ska, reggae, punk, disco and afrobeat styles stood them apart from their 2 Tone and other contempories. They gave us such incredible hits as Mirror In The Bathroom, Too Nice Too Talk To, Hands Off She's Mine, Stand Down Margaret, Best Friend, Can't Get Used To Losing You, Drowning, Tears of A Clown, Rankin Full Stop, I Confess, Save It For Later and more!

Over the last two decades fans around the world watched Ranking Roger - one of the UK's most beloved frontmen - performing with his son - Ranking Jnr by his side, keep The Beat alive! The pairing was nothing short of electric. And the results on record as equally dynamite! A fact born out in the BBC 6 music adding the Ranking Jnr/Ranking Roger penned - Side To Side by The Beat, to their A playlist.

And now, Ranking Jnr follows in his father's footsteps as the lead singer... carrying The Beat's flag into a new era with a turbo-charged live set guaranteed to raise any roof. With new material on the horizon, and sold-out shows around the world, The Beat's legacy is in phenomenal hands!

Support comes from one of the finest new 2 Tone inspired indie bands in the UK today.... Nottingham's finest - The Chase, plus Time Tunnel DJ / Ska Festival regular - Nanker P!

Don't miss this immense night of 2 Tone and ska at London's iconic 100 Club on Oxford St, London W1.
