News of the additional shows follows Coxon sharing plans to release the never-heard-before 2011 album ‘Castle Park’ while reissuing all of his solo records, starting with 1998 debut ‘The Sky Is Too High’ and its 2000 follow-up’, ‘The Golden D’, arriving next month.
That day will also see the first ever release ‘Castle Park’, produced by Ben Hillier (who also helmed Blur’s ‘Think Tank’), the album was recorded in 2011 as part of the sessions for ‘A+E’ and originally intended as a follow up his eight solo LP, but postponed due to Blur’s initial reunion and then abandoned as Coxon moved on to other projects.
Available across CD, LP, black and coloured vinyl with exclusive postcards designed by Coxon, ‘Castle Park’ (pre-order here), ‘The Sky is Too High’ (pre-order here) and ‘The Golden D’ (pre-order here) will be released on Friday June 19.
The comprehensive reissue will span all nine of his studio albums and three original soundtracks with ‘Crow Sit On Blood Tree’ (2001), ‘The Kiss Of Morning’ (2002), ‘Happiness In Magazines’ (2004), ‘Love Travels At Illegal Speeds’ (2006), ‘The Spinning’ Top (2009) and ‘A+E’ (2012) all on the way.
Not only that, but fans can also expect the two original songs and score album soundtracks for The End of The F***ing World 1 (2018) and The End of The F***ing World 2 (2019) and the original soundtrack to graphic novel (2021).
As well as penning his celebrated 2022 autobiography Verse, Chorus, Monster!, Coxon is also one half of The Waeve, alongside Rose Elinor Dougall – formerly of The Pippettes – who is also his partner and mother of his daughter. He also recently featured on ‘Parasite’ with English Teacher on the ‘Help(2)’ charity album in aid of War Child.
Speaking to NME back in 2024 about the future of Blur after their spate of huge reunion shows, Coxon told us: “We can’t leave it too long because we’re knocking on!
“Creatively, we’ll always be able to do something, but it’s important that we live life for a bit and hopefully not go through something so traumatic before getting back together again,” he said. “Damon’s always said too that we need to live life so we have something we can bring together if we’re ever going to do anything again. If that all happens, then there shouldn’t be any reason why not. All year I was saying, ‘Roll on Christmas!’ When I made it to Christmas all in one piece, I was really grateful.”
