Graham Coxon announces autobiography ‘Verse, Chorus, Monster!’ The "honest, intimate" memoir will be published in October via Faber By Will Richards 8th June 2022 Blur‘s Graham Coxon has announced details of his autobiography, Verse, Chorus , Monster!. READ MORE: Graham Coxon tells us about his sci-fi new album ‘Superstate’ and Blur’s next move The memoir is described as “an intimate, honest reflection on music, fame, ad diction and art by one of Britain’s most iconic musicians.” It will be publi shed on October 6 this year via Faber. A press release for the book reads: “Among the noise and clamour of the Britp op era, Blur co-founder Graham Coxon managed to carve out a niche to become on e of the most innovative and respected guitarists of his generation – but it wasn’t always easy. “Graham grew up as an Army kid, moving frequently in his early years from Wes t Germany to Derbyshire and Winchester before settling in Colchester, Essex. A shy child, he had a thing for eating soil and drawing intense visions; his an xiety was tempered by painting and a growing love of music.” It adds: “These twin passions grew into obsessions, and as he honed his artis tic skill at school, Goldsmiths and beyond, his band with school friend Damon Albarn, fellow student Alex James, and a drummer called Dave Rowntree began to get noticed. “But there are things they don’t tell you before you get famous. There are m onsters out there. And some may even be lurking inside yourself.” Back in April, Coxon announced a new duo called The WAEVE with Rose Elinor Dou gall, the former Pipettes member-turned-Mark Ronson collaborator. Last month (May 4), THE WAEVE played a pair of intimate launch shows at The Le xington in London, returning the next day with first single ‘Something Pretty ’. Ahead of their debut gig, the duo said: “We are greatly looking forward to un leashing our new sound live at the Lexington. We’ve been locked away, busy tr anslating the varied sounds of our songs into a dynamic live show, with the he lp of some great musician friends. We invite you to surrender to the world of The WAEVE.” The WAEVE came together after exchanging messages during the lockdown Christma s of 2020. They soon started writing songs before their collaboration “gave r ise to an unexpected sonic universe”, per a statement. Last year saw Graham Coxon release the comic book score album ‘Superstate’, as well as tease more activity from Blur. After bandmate Damon Albarn claimed that the band had been in talks and “had an idea” of how to make their comeb ack, Coxon told NME: “I was privy to that discussion. It started as a discuss ion, but didn’t really end as one.” RELATED TOPICS Blur Graham Coxon Indie -- 這新聞腿了三個禮拜請見諒～原來葛拉也到了出自傳的年紀了啊～自傳ok我也想聽他教德文～～ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 101.12.49.227 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Blur/M.1656346765.A.D50.html
