Blur are an English rock band formed in Colchester in 1989. The band are composed of vocalist/keyboardist Damon Albarn, guitarist/vocalist Graham Coxon, bassist/backing vocalist Alex James and drummer/backing vocalist Dave Rowntree. Blur were one of the biggest bands in the UK during the Britpop movement of the mid-1990s but have been on hiatus since 2003.
Blur's original influences on their debut album, Leisure, included contemporary British alternative rock trends such as Madchester and shoegazing. Following a stylistic change in the mid-1990s, influenced by English guitar groups such as The Kinks, The Beatles, and XTC, the band released Modern Life is Rubbish, Parklife and The Great Escape. As a result, the band helped to popularise the Britpop genre and achieved mass popularity in the UK, aided by a famous chart battle with Britpop rivals Oasis.
By the late 1990s, with the release of their fifth album, Blur, the band underwent another reinvention, influenced by the indie rock and lo-fi style of American bands such as Pavement and R.E.M., in the process gaining an elusive American success with the single "Song 2". The final album featuring the band's original lineup, 13, found Blur experimenting with electronica and gospel music.
In May 2002, founding member Graham Coxon left the band early in recording sessions for Think Tank, the band's seventh and latest album. Blur continued in his absence, seeing both the album and a tour through.
In 2008 Blur announced they would be reuniting to play some 2009 summer shows.

Another struggling artist here asking favours from strangers that pass through here to kindly spare a minute and please take a listen to my music... I know this approach is annoying and such requests are splattered all over My Space but my marketing budget is pretty limited at the moment and reduces me to this. Besides you never know, you might be glad you stopped by for a listen! Please feel free to add me and get in touch – all feedback is most appreciated. Many thanks! PS – Albums are available with free postage wherever you are in the world!
