THE UNPARALLELED TRIBUTE TO THE SMITHS LIVE CONCERT EXPERIENCE

For over twenty years, THE SMYTHS have brought the music of The Smiths back to life in the live arena across more than 900 shows worldwide having headlined Shepherds Bush Empire, Cardiff Tramshed, The Electric Ballroom Camden, Newcastle City Hall and The Ritz in Manchester, as well as countless festivals including Glastonbury, The Isle of Wight and Bestival.

Acclaimed by Johnny Marr (on Radio 6) and Stephen Street (Smiths Producer), rather than employ silly props and clichéd visual tropes, The Smyths focus on the live experience of a Smiths show. They imagine what The Smiths would sound like today after more than 40 years of playing the songs to several generations of fans; from the teens of then who are Grandparents now, to their children and onto to the teens of today.

The music of The Smiths remains as fresh and important as it did at the time of it's inception. This experience focuses on the experiential, the fevered rush of a brilliant band playing the songs of a generation that reverberates and resonates today.

For anyone mourning the live absence of the original band, The Smyths are the closest you'll ever get to being there.
