With roots stretching as far as the industrial north of Britain, Japan and Portland, Oregon, The Smyths are an international collective of musicians who formed to honor the legacy of The Smiths – one of the most important bands of the past 30 years who formed in Manchester in 1982.  Michel Roy handles guitar and lead vocals, Andy from Manchester is on bass and Scott Culbertson plays drums.   One-of-a-kind artisanal silk-screened merchandise will be available at the show for purchase.

 

The Smiths formed in Manchester in 1982 and the world has never been the same since. The band consisted of vocalist Morrissey; guitarist Johnny Marr; bassist Andy Rourke and drummer Mike Joyce. Critics have called them the most important alternative rock band to emerge from the British independent music scene of the 1980s. Simon Goddard of Q Magazine said in 2007 that The Smiths were “the one truly vital voice of the ’80s”, “the most influential British guitar group of the decade” and the “first indie outsiders to achieve mainstream success on their own terms”. The NME named the Smiths the “most influential artist ever” in a 2002 poll, even topping The Beatles.
The group signed to the independent record label Rough Records and released four studio albums, The Smiths (1984), Meat is Murder (1985), The Queen is Dead (1986) and Strangeways, here we come (1987). Four of their albums, including three studio albums, appeared on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. They have also released several compilations, and numerous non-LP singles.
