Damon Albarn's eagerly anticipated second solo album 'The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows' is released by new label home Transgressive on November 12th 2021.
It’s the first album released under Damon's name since his critically acclaimed debut solo LP, 2014's Mercury Music Prize-nominated 'Everyday Robots', which entered the UK charts at number 2 and entered the tops of charts all over the world including the US, Germany, France, Australia and beyond. Since then Damon has continued his prolific love affair with extensive collaboration including subsequent, chart-topping releases by his iconic bands Blur and Gorillaz.
Albarn's new album is a deeply beautiful collection of songs produced during lockdown featuring orchestras, brass and woodwind. Inspired by the beauty and chaos of the natural world, the title for this first song and its lyrics are taken from the John Clare poem 'Love & Memory' and is a timeless reminder of this legendary musician's incredible songwriting. Four more singles pre-album await
