Johnny Marr plays a Sofa Session for Jo, including music from his forthcoming double album, 鈥楩ever Dreams Pts 1-4鈥�, which is out February 25th.

The album reflects his multi-faceted past, but takes his music somewhere startlingly new. 鈥淭here鈥檚 a set of influences and a very broad sound that I鈥檝e been developing - really since getting out of The Smiths,鈥� he says. 鈥淎nd I hear it in this record. There are so many strands of music in it. I think it鈥檚 the most ambitious solo record I鈥檝e done.鈥�

Following the release of 鈥楩ever Dreams Pts 1-4鈥�, Johnny Marr will join Blondie as a special guest on their 鈥楢gainst The Odds鈥� headline tour through April and May, including London鈥檚 O2 Arena, before heading out on The Killers鈥� headline US arena tour, beginning in August through to October 2022.

Johnny Marr started his career with The Smiths, beginning an amazing history as one of the most influential songwriters and guitarists in British independent music.
