Morrissey
Steven Patrick Morrissey is an English singer and songwriter who was also the vocalist and leader of the famous band The Smiths, founded alongside Johnny Marr in 1982. Morrissey was born in 1959 in the county of Lancashire, United Kingdom, son of both Irish parents. At an early age, he showed an interest in music and participated in different musical projects in groups and as a soloist. Perhaps the love his fans profess for him is owed to the fact that his music and lyrics boosted the self-esteem of misunderstood and lonely teenagers of those generations who listened to The Smiths and to whom each song was an echo of their thoughts and emotions.
“I think I witnessed one of the best shows I’ve seen on Sunday night…But Mexrrissey takes it to the next level. They aren’t a tribute band. In case you haven’t already read it somewhere else, I’ll repeat this, because it is important to point it out.”
