JOHNNY MARR
LP
Playland
VINYL ALBUM
+ PROMO INFO SHEET
Johnny Marr enjoyed a rapturous start to his solo career
following the critical acclaim (included the honour of being
named as NME’s Godlike Genius) greeted to his Top 10
debut solo album ‘The Messenger’. Meanwhile his shows
were celebrated for his ability to combine the best of his
new material with select highlights from The
Smiths plus others from his extensive back catalogue.
Johnny Marr’s upwards trajectory continues unabated with
the release of his second solo album ‘Playland’ which is out
on October 6th on Warners. Work on ‘Playland’ commenced
in London in the Spring as soon as the year of touring in
support of ‘The Messenger’ came to a close. It finds Marr
continuing the creative connection that was forged on ‘The
Messenger’ with collaborator and co-producer Doviak as
well as the other musicians who performed
on the album and accompanying tour.
As Johnny states: "When The Messenger came out I kept
on writing. 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."
Written around a common theme of “songs that move at
the speed of life,” ‘Playland’ captures much of the spirit
that made ‘The Messenger’ so memorable with energetic,
post-punk songwriting complemented by Johnny Marr’s
characteristic guitar style, thought-provoking lyrical ideas
and poised vocal phrasing. "It's important to sound like
your environment and on this record that's London and
Manchester,” he adds. “The feeling of the
cities and the people make it into the music."
The title ‘Playland’ is inspired by ‘Homo ludens’, a 1938
book by the highly influential Dutch cultural theorist Johan
Huizinga which explores the concept of play as a
precursor and principal element of cultural development.
