"On May 17th 2010 John Illsley released his first studio album proper since Dire Straits disbanded in 1995. And his talent and heritage simply shine through.


Streets Of Heaven is a collection of beautifully crafted songs that will surprise those that thought DS was a one man band and delight those who come new to John Illsley."

This album was recorded in Cathedrale d'Images in Les Baux de Provence, a disused bauxite mine in the South of France.

The recording was edited and remixed in England by Jamie Lane at Britannia Row Studios
