The Hitsmiths

‘There’s a light that never goes out’ by The Smiths is turning 40 years old. The anthem of the misfits and outcasts of this world. Written by Johnny Marr and Morrissey in their unique style. But the reunion of The Smiths will never come … So Iwein Segers, Gianni Marzo, Jasper Hautekiet, and Jan Dhaene are taking over this summer. Met The Hitsmiths they bring you the greatest hits of The Smiths! Dance pleasure for the intellectual uncles, hip aunts, and notorious James Dean adepts to the tones of ‘Bigmouth Strikes Again’, ‘Panic’, and ‘This Charming Man’. But even the most authentic vegan-queer-punker cannot help but loosen the legs to ‘Shoplifters of the World Unite’. The shy pharmacists and librarians go wild during ‘Girlfriend in a Coma’. And we all fall into each other's arms comfortingly at ‘Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me’. The Hitsmiths: a trip down memory lane with top musicians who bring the most fine-tuned indie rock music from the 80s to life. Fun fact: The Smiths played their only Belgian concert ever on April 22, 1984, at the Breekend Festival in Bree.
