Hi,

the first edition of the new Johnny Marr newsletter is a fact! While a
brand new website is in the making, keep on checking www.jmarr.com in
the next weeks, we can now announce this fine news:

Johnny Marr + the Healers
- Debut album 'Boomslang' - 3rd February 2003
- Single 'Bangin' On' - 20th January 2003

Johnny Marr + the healers release their debut album, "Boomslang", on
the 3rd February through iMUSIC. The album is preceded by the single
"Bangin' On", released 20th January. The album was written and produced
by Johnny Marr at his Clear Studio in Manchester.

Johnny Marr comments on what influenced the album "We tried to get into
what was best about us as individuals, I wanted to do a Johnny Marr
thing but not consciously look back. We tried to find what was in us
naturally. We didn't try to emulate any particular bands as such but kept
all the things we like about modern music, rock or otherwise."

At eighteen, Johnny Marr founded The Smiths, who were recently hailed
as the greatest band of all time in the NME. Five years and seven
albums later, they were history, both literally and figuratively. Marr
continued to perform, playing with The The, Electronic, Beth Orton, Oasis
and Beck amongst numerous others.

On the healers album Johnny comments, "It sometimes sounds like The
Smiths, it would wouldn't it! It's a move forward hopefully". He also
adds "I try to keep myself curious and interesting, otherwise life's
wasted and I wouldn' t feel I had anything to say. The way the music comes
out is just how I sound these days."

The Healers are; Johnny Marr (Vocals, Guitar), Alonza Bevan (Bass), Zak
Starkey (Drums). They plan to tour the UK early next year.

Haha - I just came here to post that myself!

Good news!!! I was wondering if that album would ever come out.

Hmm, we may have a situation where both Morrissey and Marr release
an album at the same time. Things are looking up for 2003, folks.

- LOL! Well whoever gets from their email "in-box" to this board first wins ;^)

- The single "Down On The Corner" sounds GREAT... he played it live with Neil Finn at a show here in L.A. in July, along with "How Soon Is Now?" and "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" (with Neil Finn on vocals)
