With chart-topping albums, Number One singles, Brit- and Ivor Novello Awards, blur’s canon continues to resonate and inspire. One of the most successful British bands of the last three decades, blur has - since the very early days - continued to revolutionise the sound of British popular music. Summer ‘23 saw a triumphant return to the live stage with two sold out Wembley Stadium shows and a string of headline festival appearances, all to mark the release of their Number One critically-acclaimed ninth studio album The Ballad of Darren. Produced by James Ford, the record is the band’s most arrestingly intimate work to date, drawing on the emotional memory of shared history, resulting in a collection of songs alchemised into blur’s unique and unmistakable sound.
