Marr and Brown working on music for TV
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 30 September 2009
Ian Brown has revealed that he and Johnny Marr are working together on music for a new TV drama being written by a mutual friend. He added that his former Stone Roses bandmate Mani, or possibly Happy Monday’s Paul Ryder, may also lend a hand on bass guitar.
Brown told BBC News: “The idea is that Johnny writes the music and I write the words and the melodies. We’ve got a mutual friend who’s writing a drama series. One of them’s about ticket touts, another one’s about grafters – kids who sell t-shirts and things like that – and another one’s about pickpockets. We’re going to get together and do the soundtrack for these dramas. We’d have to bring a drummer or a bass player in”.
