As promised, former The Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr will embark on a spring U.K. tour following the release of his new solo album, ‘The Messenger,’ with 10 dates announced this week in March, culminating with a show in his hometown of Manchester. Also, check out new song “The Right Thing Right.”

As he ramps up for the release of his new solo album early next year, Johnny Marr has been appearing on some U.K. radio programs, most recently recording a session for Dermot O’Leary’s show on BBC Radio 2 earlier this week that aired today. Check out his performance of “Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want.”

Johnny Marr today premiered the first song off his forthcoming solo record The Messenger by releasing a starkly black-and-white video for the album’s hypnotic title track — which you can watch right here.
