Johnny Marr: “I just wanted to be in a band who work all the time”
The former Smiths man reveals a handful of details about his forthcoming new album.
It’s fair to say that Johnny Marr is one of the most productive guitarists in present day music. If he’s not working alongside Pharell Williams and Alicia Keys on the soundtrack for a Hollywood blockbuster, he’s playing shows alongside Jake Bugg with a unbeknown broken hand. That’s not stopped him putting together a second solo album, either. Less Johnny Marr; more Johnny Marr-vellous.
