For more than two decades, THE SMYTHS have been hailed as the world's most acclaimed live legacy band to The Smiths. Endorsed by each of The Smiths and their producer Stephen Street, the band has performed over 1000 shows across the UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Brazil along with major festivals such as Glastonbury and the Isle of Wight. Rather than relying on clichés, The Smyths focus on recreating the raw, visceral experience of a live Smiths show. They deliver the timeless music of a generation with the electric energy fans imagine The Smiths would have today. Their audience spans multiple generations, from original fans to today's teenagers, proving that The Smiths' music remains as vital as ever. "Having had the very good fortune to have worked up close and personal with THE SMITHS, I can vouch that THE SMYTHS are the most excellent "tribute" to the Smiths' music and legacy. The Smyths' musicianship is undoubtedly of a very high standard enabling them to play every song from The Smiths and Morrissey's catalog with incredible precision and feel. Go and see them live, you won't be disappointed" STEPHEN STREET, PRODUCER OF THE SMITHS "Calling them a tribute act is an insult. I closed my eyes and I thought it was 1985" JEREMY VINE, BROADCASTER
