By 1984 it was clear The Smiths were special. A raft of what became classic singles and two iconic albums cemented what would become the legacy of the early years. 2024 sees the 40th anniversary of two iconic Smiths albums, The Smiths and Hatful of Hollow- albums that feature such classic tracks as This Charming Man / Hand In Glove / What Difference Does It Make? / William It Was Really Nothing / Heaven Knows Im Miserable Now / How Soon Is Now. To celebrate, THE SMYTHS tour the UK extensively playing some 70+ venues with its 2024 tour 84 - A celebration of The Smiths & Hatful of Hollow as well as featuring a Best Of set. Having had the very good fortune to have worked up close and personal with THE SMITHS, I can vouch that THE SMYTHS are the most excellent "tribute" to the Smiths' music and legacy - Stephen Street, legendary music producer of The Smiths. To call them a tribute band is an insult...I closed my eyes and it was 1985 - Jeremy Vine, Broadcaster
