Morrissey Confirms To Play Shea's Buffalo Theatre This Fall
The solo trek supports new album MAKE UP IS A LIE and the upcoming DELUXE NOTRE-DAME EP.
Rock icon Morrissey will visit Shea's Buffalo Theatre for one performance at 8:00 PM on Tuesday, September 22, 2026.
Last month, Morrissey released his 14th solo studio album, MAKE-UP IS A LIE, his first album for Sire/Warner Records in 30 years. The album features 12 tracks, including the single “Make-up is a Lie” and “The Monsters of Pig Alley.”
On June 19, Morrissey will release the DELUXE NOTRE-DAME EP, which includes unreleased tracks from the album sessions and the track “Notre-Dame,” along with three additional songs: “Notre-Dame (Orchestrated Version),” “Hello Hell,” and “Happy New Tears.”
MAKE-UP IS A LIE
MAKE-UP IS A LIE reached No. 3 on the UK Albums Chart, marking Morrissey’s 16th Top 10 solo album in the UK and his 26th overall when including his work with The Smiths.
The album reunited Morrissey with producer Joe Chiccarelli as he returned to Studio La Fabrique in the Saint-Rémy-de-Provence region of Southern France. Musicians on the album include Jesse Tobias, Camila Grey, Carmen Vandenberg, Juan Galeano, Alain Whyte, Gustavo Manzur, and Brendan Buckley.
With lyrics and instrumentation that reflect his ongoing artistic approach, the album continues Morrissey’s decades-long career as a recording and touring artist.
