A never-before-heard solo studio album from Graham Coxon. Titled Castle Park and recorded in 2011, the previously unreleased record will be available on 19 June, 2026 and comes as part of a comprehensive reissue of Coxon's complete solo catalogue, spanning 9 studio albums and 3 original soundtracks, across the next 12 months. Produced by Ben Hillier (blur - Think Tank), Castle Park was recorded in 2011 as part of the A+E (2012) sessions. Originally intended as a follow up to A+E, the release was postponed due to blur activity in 2012, before Coxon moved on to other projects. Castle Park is a collection of 10 songs that lean into the artist's classic mod sound, with lead single 'Billy Says' - a longtime feature of Coxon's live set - already familiar to fans and now finally available for the first time. With his back catalogue long sold out and in high demand on physical formats, Castle Park kicks off a comprehensive reissue of Coxon's expansive solo catalogue and comes alongside the re-release of The Sky is Too High and The Golden D, all available on 19 June. Further drops across the coming year will include the studio albums Crow Sit on Blood Tree (2001), The Kiss of Morning (2002), Happiness In Magazines (2004), Love Travels at Illegal Speeds (2006), The Spinning Top (2009), A+E (2012); as well as the two Original Songs and Score album soundtracks for The End of The F***ing World 1 (2018) and The End of The F***ing World 2 (2019); and Superstate (2021), the original soundtrack released to accompany the graphic novel of the same name. An English musician, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and visual artist, Graham Coxon is one of the most innovative guitarists of his generation, best known as being a founding member of blur. Coxon has also released eight solo albums and frequently composes for film and TV. His passion for experimental and indie music helped shape the distinctive blur sound throughout their imperial hit-making phase, a period that produced a succession of chart-topping albums which propelled the band to mass popularity in the UK and beyond. That adventurousness is also a feature of his solo career, which ranges from folk and Krautrock-inspired albums to soundtrack work.
