TV Smith

£ 5 The Steamboat – 8pm
TV Smith is one of the most talented , literate and passionate yet curiously overlooked songwriters to emerge from London ’ s vibrant ‘ 77 new wave punk scene . Smith formed The Adverts in late ‘ 76 with his girlfriend Gaye and press criticism of the band ’ s alleged musical ineptitude was answered by a defiant and iconic debut single , One Chord Wonders .
The band received a lot of press attention and a promising future beckoned . However , after a well-received but under performing debut LP and a critically acclaimed follow-up , The Adverts suffered an acrimonious collapse . Pushed to the margins of the music industry by shifting musical trends , Smith ’ s persistence is finally paying dividends . He has carved out a career as a solo artist and troubadour and painstakingly built a new audience through constant touring .
