*this is a standing show*

This is the premier Smiths tribute around, no question. Performing at far bigger venues in the UK, Europe and beyond, there is no better Smiths show around – evidenced by sell-outs every time.

Ans 2025 sees the 40th anniversary of The Smiths’ legendary second album “Meat is Murder”.

Arguably the band’s most controversial release (they considered it as a protest album), not only did it do more than anything in pop culture to encourage a generation to become vegetarians, it was the first album to introduce Morrissey’s criticism of the Royal Family.

Coming a year on from the band’s debut, “Meat Is Murder” showed the band moving it’s musical might to a muscular new sound (whilst still maintaining it’s ability to produce heartbreakingly beautiful songs).

So… The Smyths presenting “Meat is Murder 40 + Greatest Hits” is a show that celebrates this classic album in its entirety alongside Smiths classics and hits.
