Morrissey To Play Three LA-Area Shows
by Staff | 00.00.0000

Morrissey has announced his first shows of 2007 and Los Angeles-area fans are in luck. Moz will play three nights at Pasadena Civic Auditorium on February 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Tickets will go on-sale at 10am Saturday January 13th via Ticketmaster. Moz's backing band at these shows will be: Boz Boorer (guitar), Jesse Tobias (guitar), Solomon Walker (bass), Matt Walker (drums) and Vincent Jones (keyboards.)

The lineup means the departure of bassist Gary Day and keyboardist Mike Farrell. This will be the first time that Solomon Walker (who is drummer Matt's brother) and Vincent Jones have ever played with Moz. Jones is a Canadian session musician who has played with artists such as Dave Gahan and Bruce McCulloch. While Solomon was a member of Year Of The Rabbit and has played with the likes of James Iha and Veruca Salt.

Morrissey has yet to do a full tour in support of his latest album, 2006's Ringleader of The Tormentors. Support at all three dates will come from Kristeen Young.
