Marr released his debut solo live album, ‘Adrenalin Baby’, in October 2015.
The 17-track double album documents Marr’s live performances over the past three years. The majority of the live recordings are taken from Marr’s O2 Academy Brixton and Manchester Apollo shows in October 2014.
They were part of the ‘Johnny’s Playland’ tour, which supported 2013’s debut solo album ‘The Messenger’ and 2014 follow-up, ‘Playland’.
