According to reports, Damon Albarn has formed a new band (because clearly two isn't enough). Mojo says that the Blur frontman's new group is called 'The Good The Bad And The Queen' and members comprise The Clash's Paul Simonon, Fela Kuti drummer Tony Allen and former Verve guitarist, Simon Tong, who, of course, played live dates with Blur following the 2002 departure of Graham Coxon.
The band are set to play their first show at that previously reported BBC Electric Proms series, appearing at Camden's Roundhouse in October. A single is expected that month, with an album to follow in January next year.
