With his debut solo album scheduled for release in April, Blur frontman Damon Albarn has performed a new track from it.
Albarn had already previewed the number “Lonely Press Play” live at the Sundance Film Festival, but now has run through the track again for BBC Radio 2 – along with a rendition of “Seasons In The Sun”
The stripped back, acoustic song is a far cry from its predecessor, the more experimental title-track “Everyday Robots”. Take a listen to it yourself below.
Everyday Robots, the album, will drop in April.
