Graham Coxon

Wednesday, 25 April

The Forum, 9 - 17 Highgate Road, Kentish Town, NW5 1JY

Live Music: Rock, Indie

How Much: £17.50 (Advance Tickets)
Graham Coxon was the guitarist in Blur, and always looked like he hated it. With his think rimmed specs and shuffly manner, he was the antithesis of the cocksure Damon Albarn and coke bingeing Alex James.

Odd then that is first solo album sounded more like Blur than Blur sometimes did. Whilst Albarn is off fiddling with cartoons and forming super-groups, Coxon went back to basics. His solo stuff is great: punky but tender, and, like most great rock, making really mundane things sound important.

Now re-united with his Blur bandmates but still pursuing his own projects with a freak-folk bent, all is well in the world of Mr Coxon.
