Probably as close to the real thing as you’ll get, tribute act The Smyths have confirmed a run of Australian headline dates for 2019.

Now in their 15th year, the group will perform The Smith’s seminal The Queen Is Dead in full alongside a collection of the band’s greatest hits, including There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, Big Mouth Strikes Again and more.

The Smyths have stated they “spent a year rehearsing every week to make sure that when we launched we sounded genuine”.

“The Smiths and their fans (like us) demand nothing less,” they said.
