The Specials Ltd.'Gangsters' Tour 2027

The Specials Ltd. are the world's most authentic and original tribute to 2-Tone Records Legends, The Specials.

When the original line up of The Specials split in 1981 they left behind a legacy which has been unrivaled by a single band since. The Specials formed their own 2-Tone record label which launched the recording careers of Madness, The Beat, The Bodysnatchers and The Selecter.

The Specials Ltd are an 8 piece group who recreate the passion and enthusiasm of The Specials, bringing back memories of those who were there first time around and showing younger fans what they missed.

The Specials Ltd perform classics and fan favourites such as Gangsters, Do The Dog, Message To You Rudy, Stereotype, Rat Race, Do Nothing, Monkey Man, Too Much Too Young and more.

An AGMP Concerts presentation.
