Featured Release This Week From Johnny Marr + Studio One Tracks Top 30 Playlist

facebook.com/officialjohnnymarr

Johnny Marr established his fame in the 1980s with The Smiths- a very popular and influential band in their native England, and a significant cult band in the United States.  Marr was the guitarist in the group, and co-wrote the band's songs with frontman Morrissey.  The Smiths only lasted for five years, and Marr went on to not only do a lot of session work, but to join bands like The Pretenders (briefly), The The, Modest Mouse, and The Cribs.  He also formed a new band, Electronic, with Bernard Sumner.  Since 2013, Marr has been releasing solo albums.  Call The Comet is his third.  In 2010, a BBC poll found Johnny Marr to be the fourth best guitarist of the last 30 years.  He demonstrates that mastery, plus his skills as a songwriter and vocalist on Call The Comet.
