Johnny Marr, Somewhere Download MP3
Johnny Marr, the Manchester guitar hero, is most famous for his game-changing work with the Smiths.
Marr has kept himself plenty busy ever since that band ended. In the past year or so, he has collaborated onstage with bands like Primal Scream, the Killers, and the Pretenders. He played on a recent Noel Gallagher single and reunited with his former Smiths bandmate Andy Rourke just before Rourke’s passing. Now, Johnny Marr is preparing to release a best-of collection of his solo records.
Marr has had stints in other bands, including Electronic, Modest Mouse, the Cribs, and the aforementioned Pretenders. He also briefly led a band called Johnny Marr & The Healers, who released one album in 2003. However, Marr has only been making proper solo records since 2013 when he came out with his LP ‘The Messenger.’
Since then, he has released three more albums, and that’s the period covered in the upcoming collection, ‘Spirit Power: The Best Of Johnny Marr.’ The compilation will include Marr’s singles, as well as demos and curios like the cover of Depeche Mode’s “I Feel You” that Marr released for Record Store Day 2015. It also features two new songs, one of which is available today.
Marr wrote the new single “Somewhere” while touring with the Killers and Blondie and co-produced it with James Doviak. It’s a driving, anthemic rocker that would make perfect sense at a festival. Honestly, it’s pretty crazy that Johnny Marr took so long to become a frontman; he knows what he’s doing up there.
John Martin Marr is an English musician, songwriter, and singer. He first became well-known as the guitarist and co-songwriter for the Smiths, who were active from 1982 to 1987. Since then, he has gone on to perform with several other bands, and has also established a successful solo career.
