Though their muse never made it to our shores, THE SMYTHS announced their impending arrival in celebration of The Queen Is Dead turning 32, bringing with them the sound, the feel and ultimately, the spirit of one of the greatest, and most influential rock acts of all time, The Smiths.

Released in June of 1986, The Queen Is Dead was welcomed into a world riddled with social change. The record perfectly tells the tales of struggle, ambition, love, loss and drama that were widespread during the era. Indeed, The Queen Is Dead is every bit as needed today as it was 32 years ago.

The Queen Is Dead 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 and I know it’s over. THE SMYTHS will be performing the album in full, as well as a special encore of Greatest Hits.

Leaving the wigs and props in their cases, THE SMYTHS have been tagged as the foremost tribute to The Smiths for their authentic renditions, fussed over and polished as only devotes of The Smiths could do.
