Johnny Marr

Johnny Marr, the legendary guitarist of The Smiths, returns to Rome, on the stage of the Cavea – Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone, for a unique and unmissable event: a concert that retraces all the stages of his amazing career, on the eve of the release of his new album, “The Age Of Everything”.

Marr has written some of the most important pages in the history of alternative music: from his debut with The Smiths—which established him as one of the most influential songwriters and guitarists of his generation—his creative journey has seen him at the centre of key projects such as The The, Electronic, Modest Mouse, and The Cribs, as well as collaborations with artists such as the Pretenders, Talking Heads, The Avalanches, and composer Hans Zimmer, with whom he worked on the soundtrack to the latest James Bond film, No Time To Die, co-writing the Oscar-nominated title track with Billie Eilish. His return to the stage thus comes at a particularly creative moment in his career; the tour follows the release of fundamental works such as "Spirit Power" and the recent live album "Look Out Live!".

The concert at the Auditorium, which alternates songs by the Smiths—such as This Charming Man and Bigmouth Strikes Again—with new unreleased songs like Somewhere and The Answer, allows you to fully immerse yourself in his sonic universe, confirming an extraordinary career that continues to evolve while always remaining faithful to an immediately recognizable style.
