Formed in 1979, The bEAT made an instant impact with their debut single, an infectious cover of the Smokey Robinson classic “Tears of A Clown”, on 2-Tone Records, which entered the UK charts at #6. Alongside contemporaries The Specials, Madness, and The Selecter, The bEAT became an overnight sensation. Come and join us for a riotous evening with this legendary 2-Tone band. Plus support from the legendary The Selecter, and a special DJ set from Rhoda Dakar.
