Mark Knopfler is one of the most revered recording artists of all time, with over 40 years of international success and a slew of hits and awards to his name. But that doesn't mean the former Dire Straits guitarist is ready to slow down.
An original and beautifully crafted work, Get Lucky is Knopfler's sixth studio album since his solo debut in 1996, and another dazzling jewel at that. A seamless blend of folk, blues and rock, this is honest, heartfelt and full of life, with characters that leap right out of the lyrics and into your heart, like the Glasgow truck driver in Border Reiver, or the lost uncle that Knopfler never knew who features in the moving Piper To The End.
Recorded in West London at Knopfler's award-winning studios, and co-produced alongside longtime collaborators Chuck Ainley and Guy Fletcher, Get Lucky showcases once again the incredible talent of Knopfler as a musician and a storyteller.
