List of Morrissey band members

Morrissey and band performing in 2016

Morrissey is an English singer and songwriter who, since the break-up of the Smiths, has worked with several musicians throughout his career as a solo artist. His current touring band consists of guitarist Jesse Tobias (since 2005), drummer Matt Walker, bassist Solomon Walker (both of whom first joined in 2007), keyboardist Camila Grey and guitarist Carmen Vandenberg (both since 2023)

History

Several months after the Smiths broke up in 1988, Morrissey enlisted Smiths producer Stephen Street to help begin his solo career. His debut album Viva Hate (1988) featured Street on bass and guitar, Vini Reilly on guitar and keyboards and Andrew Paresi on drums. ^[1] His first solo performance happened on 22 December of the same year, at which he was backed by former Smiths bandmates, Craig Gannon (guitar), Andy Rourke (bass) and Mike Joyce (drums). ^{[2] [3]} The three continued to play on Morrissey's singles until 1989 and 1990.

Morrissey hired a new band from 1991's Kill Uncle , consisting of Mark E. Nevin (guitar), Mark Bedford (bass), Andrew Paresi (drums, percussion), Seamus Beaghen and Steven Heart (keyboards), Nawazish Ali Khan (violin) and Linder Sterling (backing vocals). For live performances in the same year he was joined by guitarists Boz Boorer and Alain Whyte, bassist Gary Day and drummer Spencer Cobrin. ^[4] Day and Cobrin were replaced by Jonny Bridgwood (who Day had originally replaced) and Woodie Taylor in 1993. ^[5] Spencer Cobrin returned in 1995. ^[6]

In 1999, Day returned alongside new drummer Spike T. Smith. ^[6] Dean Butterworth replaced Smith in 2003, joining alongside keyboardist Roger Joseph Manning Jr. Manning was replaced by Michael Farrell in 2004. ^[7] Guitarist Jesse Tobias also joined in 2005. ^[8] Matt Chamberlain replaced Butterworth in 2005. ^[8] Day was also replaced by Solomon Walker in 2007, ^[9] who brought in his brother, Matt Walker on drums. ^[9]

Manning returned in 2008 ^[10] and Whyte left in 2009. Gustavo Manzur also replaced Manning in 2009, ^[11] as well as Mando Lopez replacing Solomon Walker on bass. ^[12] Walker returned in 2021, alongside Whyte and new drummer Brendan Buckley, replacing Lopez, Boorer and Matt Walker respectively. ^[13] Juan Galeano replaced Walker in 2022. ^[14] Camila Grey replaced Manzur in 2023, ^[15] as well as Carmen Vandenberg replacing Whyte. ^[16] The Walker brothers both returned in 2024. ^[17]
