Blur frontman confirms the band will be getting back together

Blur frontman Damon Albarn has confirmed that Blur will be reuniting next year. The news comes after previous reports that the singer had re-ignited his friendship with the band's former guitarist Graham Coxon.

Albarn revealed that Blur will be working together today shortly before a special one-off performance of his opera 'Monkey: Journey To The West' at the BBC Radio Theatre in London. Albarn was asked by the host Janice Long whether the band, including guitarist Graham Coxon, would be playing together next year, the singer replied, "Blur are certainly going to rehearse and see if we're into it."

In May 2002, Coxon was asked to leave Blur early in the recording of their seventh album 'Think Tank' because of his failure to turn up and 'attitude'. Since the 2003 tour of the album, Blur have done no studio work or touring with members engaged instead in other projects.
