11 years on from the release of their self-titled debut album, Damon Albarn’s supergroup The Good, The Bad & The Queen have announced their all-new record, ‘Merrie Land’, alongside sharing the project’s lead, and title-track.
Premiered by BBC 6 Music’s Steve Lamacq (and cited by the DJ as his “favourite thing that Damon’s done in a decade”, the track comes ahead of next month’s arrival of the full ‘Merrie Land’ project, which has seen Albarn reunite with The Clash’s Paul Simonon, The Verve’s Simon Tong and Fela Kuti drummer Tony Allen (alongside producer Tony Visconti).
Alongside the song, The Good The Bad & The Queen have also announced a stop on BBC2’s ‘Later… With Jools Holland’ next week, whilst also confirming various tour dates across the UK in December.
