Blur Threaten To Play Country House

Blur are planning on making a comeback this summer with a few arena dates set in June and July to celebrate the return of Graham Coxon to the line up.

In the most recent past tours the band have been very reluctant to play the song which saw them win the whole Blur vs Oasis competition way back in 1995, but with the return of Coxon to the band the news is they’re planning on dusting the track off and revamping it.

Albarn told BBC Newsbeat: “I am determined to do a version of ‘Country House’ that works. Graham playing a really nice picky, folky thing and my friend David Coulter playing the whole tune on saw, and letting the audience sing.

“If there was any song that I really wanted to exercise and be reborn, it would be that one, because, you know, it was such a stupid moment.”
