The Profile

British musician, singer, songwriter and composer. Co-founder and frontman of Blur and co-creator of Gorillaz. His solo work includes Everyday Robots (2014) and The Nearer the Fountain, More Pure the Stream Flows (2021), alongside theater and film scores such as Dr Dee and Monkey: Journey to the West.

Reviews highlight an intimate solo debut co-produced with Brian Eno (Everyday Robots), a contemplative Iceland-written follow-up during lockdown (The Nearer the Fountain), a colorful stage soundtrack (Monkey), the 2009 NME reconciliation with Graham Coxon, and the Democrazy demos pressed in a 5,000-copy vinyl run.

Five DeBaser reviews chart Albarn’s path from the intimate Everyday Robots to the contemplative The Nearer the Fountain. There’s a playful takedown of Monkey’s kitsch extravaganza, a warm nod to the 2009 NME reconciliation with Graham Coxon, and a note on Democrazy’s 5,000-copy vinyl cult status. Overall verdict: a mature, inventive artist thriving across pop, theater, and film music.
