Patti Smith’s seminal debut album Horses turns 50 this year, and to celebrate, the iconic singer-songwriter will hit the road to play it in full across Europe and the US. London will be treated to a pair of shows at the Palladium on October 12 and October 13, with dates also pencilled in for Dublin, Paris and more.
The record will be celebrated with Lenny Kate (guitar) and Jay Dee Daugherty (drums), both original members of Patti Smith’s band; as well Tony Shanahan, who has played bass and keyboard with the band since 1996; and Jackson Smith, Patti Smith’s son and member of the band since 2016, on guitar.

Patti Smith released her debut album Horses on November 10, 1975, and it is widely regarded as one of the most influential albums of the period, and is a mainstay on Greatest Album Of All Time lists, featuring on both NME‘s and Rolling Stone‘s lists.
