TV SMITH  /  Tickets

TV Smith has established himself as the leading solo performer of the punk rock scene and has released many albums. He has also been involved in a number of collaborations with other bands, most notably with German superstars Die Toten Hosen, who performed as TV’s backing band on the album “Useless.”

TV released a brand new album entitled “Handwriting” in April 2024 on Easy Action in the UK/USA and the Toten Hosen label JKP/Warners in Europe. Recorded in collaboration with renowned producer and multi-instrumentalist Gerry Diver, the pair have created a record with a thrilling totally new musical landscape using no conventional rock instruments. TV sings and plays acoustic guitar on twelve of his finest songs to date, while Gerry backs him up on harmonium, mandolin, bouzouki, banjo, piano, tenor guitar, bass guitar, percussion…and much more! Critics are already calling it the best album of his career.

Fiercely independent and proudly embodying the original spirit of punk rock, TV performs as an acoustic solo artist all over the world, as well as playing occasional gigs with backup bands. Over the past few years he has supported Stiff Little Fingers, the Damned and Ruts DC on major tours in the UK, and played headline tours throughout UK, Europe, the U.S.A and Japan. In 2025 he embarked on a world tour taking in 12 countries including the UK, Germany, Switzerland, Finland, Ireland, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and North America.
