THE SMYTHS present The Queen Is Dead 40th Anniversary Tour. Joining them as Special Guest will be Billy Bragg Tribute, BILLY BLAGG
Forty years ago, The Smiths released The Queen Is Dead, an album that would come to define a generation. A ferocious blend of jangling guitars, mordant wit, and lyrical vulnerability, the 1986 record became a cultural touchstone — not just for disaffected youth of the Thatcher era, but for anyone who ever felt out of step with the world. The album gave the world timeless tracks including There Is a Light That Never Goes Out, Big Mouth Strikes Again, The Boy with The Thorn in His Side, I Know It’s Over, Cemetery Gates.
To celebrate the album’s 40th Anniversary, THE SMYTHS will perform The Queen Is Dead in full plus a Special Encore of Greatest Hits that includes This Charming Man, Panic, Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now, Ask, How Soon is Now, Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want, Hand in Glove, What Difference Does It Make, Girlfriend in a Coma plus some Morrissey solo gems.
BILLY BLAGG’s Billy Bragg Tribute Setlist will include – A New England, Greetings to the New Brunette, Levi Stubb's Tears, Sexuality, Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards plus More!
This will be more than a concert. It will be a fitting celebration of a band that changed lives, and an album that remains timeless. Four decades on, The Queen Is Dead still pulses with life, defiance, beauty, and sadness. And thanks to THE SMYTHS, that light — and that spirit — refuses to go out.
