#Damon Albarn Signs to Trangressive Records, Readies New Album

Damon Albarn has signed to Transgressive Records as a solo artist. The label will release a new solo album from the Blur and Gorillaz frontman; today’s announcement notes he recently put the “finishing touches” on the new album. It’ll be the follow-up to his 2014 solo debut Everyday Robots.

“We have had the great pleasure of collaborating with Damon over the years via the incredible Africa Express project, which has introduced many gifted artists to the Transgressive world,” Trangressive’s Toby L said in a statement. “His voracious passion for music and exploration knows no bounds and repeatedly defies convention or categorisation, whilst always remaining utterly inviting and intoxicating throughout. Truly prolific, his latest solo work is amongst the finest of his career.”
