If anybody has heard of Dire Straits, you may remember David Knopfler, who is the singer's brother. He played with Dire Straits and formed the band with Mark when they were younger.
Unfortunately Mark was sort of bossy. He seemed nice when I saw him live a few years ago doing his solo stuff...but David never talks about him so I don't bring him up.

Anyhow, if you like laid back music, David has it all. Check him out!

And obviously, his Myspace:

And website:

Thought I'd advertise for a friend while I have the opportunities He is an online friend, but I class him as a friend because he is a genuine personality and his conversations are genuine.
Mind you. If you do contact him, do not talk to him about Dire Straits, or his brother or that I said any of that. David is his own man, his own musician, and has written a LOT of albums on his own, is a multi instrumentalist of amazing talent. Im a huge Dire Straits fan, I admit, but there is no point assuming David is a cast off...he left of his own accord to write his own stuff under his own rules.
