Blur drummer Dave Rowntree unveils debut solo single "London Bridge"
Blur drummer Dave Rowntree has dropped their debut solo single “London Bridge” today.
The track, which was produced by Leo Abrahams (Wild Beasts, Brian Eno, Ghostpoet), comes with a music video directed by French design trio Cauboyz. Rowntree said this about the song, which is out on digital services on Cooking Vinyl right now:
“When I lived in London things just started happening when I was near London Bridge, going over London Bridge on the bus, or on the tube going underneath London Bridge. I would just notice events occurring, or have life changing thoughts, make decisions and it was slightly unsettling. I had to confront my London Bridge demons.
I’m really excited to release my first single as a solo artist. It’s from a body of work that I’ve been putting together over the last couple of years, and I’m humbled to be releasing it on the legendary Cooking Vinyl label."
Since 2009, MP3s and NPCs owner Terrance Pryor has written about music, conventions, cosplay, and video games for publications such as AXS, Examiner, Fake Walls, and Ranker.
