Sept. 25, 2019 – The charity uses different methods to aid those in recovery from addiction and helps them regain control of their lives. The couple have both been in recovery from addictions for almost 20 years. Kevin said: “A guitar literally saved my life. I played with Johnny Marr and Andy Rourke in the early days of The Smiths. “A guitar was my constant companion during the Corrie years and I took one into rehab. I have played since getting clean and sober.”

“I am definitely going to play the song I played with Johnny Marr. People will have to come along to find out what that is.” As well as Kevin, another man who has history with some of the world’s biggest rock bands will also be appearing at the show. Andy Franks is a former high-flying tour manager who has worked with The Stone Roses, The Rolling Stones, Madness and Coldplay.
