Synopsis:

In 1976, TV Smith founded the Adverts, one of the leading bands in the first wave of British punk rock. The album released in early 1978, “Crossing the Red Sea with the Adverts,” is still considered a genuine classic of the era and is often cited as one of the twenty best punk albums ever released. The Adverts released one further album, “Cast Of Thousands,” before their split in 1979. Immediately after the break up, TV formed TV Smith’s Explorers, who achieved a U.K. hit in 1980 with the single “Tomahawk Cruise”. In the early 1990’s, TV performed his first gigs as a solo artist. He has gone on to release a succession of critically-acclaimed albums. Fiercely independent and determinedly embodying the original spirit of punk rock, TV continues to tour the world, bringing his epic solo show to ever-increasing audiences. Remarkably, he plays his concerts without a setlist and every performance contains a different selection of songs chosen on the night. He plays more than 120 gigs a year and has performed all over Europe, as well as the USA, Japan, Australia and South America.
