The Smiths Presumably
De Oosterpoort
Trompsingel 27, 9724 DA GroningenNo other tribute band performs the oeuvre of The Smiths as impressively as The Smiths Presumably. This Belgian band, with roots in Limburg, has built a stellar live reputation in the United Kingdom.
In the birthplace of The Smiths, they bring the Morrissey and Marr classics from the 1980s — such as This Charming Man, Bigmouth Strikes Again, Girlfriend in a Coma, and There Is a Light That Never Goes Out — back to life for sold-out audiences.
According to die-hard fans, it’s a brilliant tribute and an evening full of nostalgia that will get even the shyest wallflower dancing.
The voice, presence, and stage performance of singer Jürgen Wendelen — half British, half Belgian — come remarkably close to the legendary and eccentric British frontman in his prime. He is backed by the Limburg-based band, playing with passion and precision.
