Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr has unveiled details of a new album release.
The musician’s solo debut The Messenger only came out last year, but now Marr will follow it up with Playland on 7 October.
“When The Messenger came out I kept on writing,” Marr said. “I liked that the band had a momentum going on tour and a connection with the audience, and I thought that energy would be good to capture on the new record.”
The LP’s tracklist is as below:
1 Back in the Box
2 Easy Money
3 Dynamo
4 Candidate
5 25 Hours
6 The Trap
7 Playland
