Listen live at www.kexp.org. The Smiths' guitar legend and NME's "God-Like Genius" award-winner is currently in the midst of a Fall US tour in support of his recently released album Call The Comet. Marr and his band have returned to North America post-album release for an extensive coast-to-coast run that includes Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Austin, Toronto and Boston, as well as Mexico City and more. Tickets are on-sale at JohnnyMarr.com and full list of dates is below.

Recorded with his band in Manchester at Marr's Crazy Face Studios in Manchester, Call The Comet follows the critically acclaimed UK Top 10 albums The Messenger (2013) and

Playland (2014). Says Marr: "Call The Comet is my own magic realism. It's set in the not-too-distant future and is mostly concerned with the idea of an alternative society. The characters in the songs are searching for a new idealism, although there are some personal songs in there too. It's something that people like me can relate to."
