A recent interview with the band's guitarist, Gavin Murphy, appears here -

"The Smiths were one of the most revered bands of the 1980s, a quartet whose influence is still felt today. Fans of their music check out These Charming Men when they come to the Róisín Dubh this Friday, March 18.

The tribute act has been playing together since 1995. Their formation sounds like it could have come from High Fidelity, Nick Hornby’s novel about music obsessives.

“Basically, I’m a huge Smiths fan,” says Gavin Murphy, who plays the guitar parts written by Johnny Marr. “The band has always been a labour of love – my brother [Des] is the bass player, and we’d always be jamming the songs together..."'
 
The Village is over Whelans of Wexford Street, playing host to These Charming Men later today. :guitar::rock:
 
We will raise a convivial ale to your good self, Peter..

Morrissean yelps, yodels and highjinks; magic fingers sprinting over frets; swathes of smiling faces singing along and dancing like flowers to an envigorating breeze: These Charming Men did it again! :thumb: :guitar:
