About Morrissey and his recent ventures
Morrissey began his musical career in 1977, associating himself with the punk genre. He went on to become the frontman of The Smiths and achieve worldwide acclaim. The band released four albums before disbanding, namely The Smiths in 1984, Meat Is Murder in 1985, The Queen Is Dead in 1986, and Strangeways, Here We Come in 1987.
The singer then began his solo career in 1988 with the release of his debut album, Viva Hate. He has had 16 albums in the UK Top Ten and another nine Top Ten albums with The Smiths. In the United States, he boasts two Top Ten albums and eight Top 20 albums.
He smashed The Beatles' record for selling out the Hollywood Bowl in 1991. In 2006, BBC viewers voted him to be the second Greatest Living British Icon, preceded by Sir David Attenborough and followed by Sir Paul McCartney. Morrissey Autobiography, published by Penguin Classics in 2013, is the second fastest-selling autobiography in British history.
Morrissey will showcase songs from his latest album during Las Vegas residency
Earlier this year, the singer announced Viva Moz Vegas, a multi-date residency that will take place at Las Vegas’ Colosseum located at Caesars Palace. The residency will begin on July 1 and run through July 9. He is set to present songs from his latest album, Bonfire of Teenagers, at the Las Vegas residency.
The singer's website states that the concerts in Las Vegas in July "will showcase songs from the album ‘Bonfire Of Teenagers’, which was recorded in January 2021."
He added in a statement:
“The thrill of this album was the speed under which it was recorded. Considering the knots of grief I had experience [sic] at the time, it made ‘Bonfire’ an incredible achievement for me.”
In May, the singer perfomed one of his new singles, titled I Am Veronica, during his US tour.
