Blur loves Hong Kong, and we love Blur back.
The iconic British band is set to return to the Fragrant Harbour for one night only this July, and will be performing songs from “The Magic Whip”, their new Hong Kong-inspired album.
“Go Out” from their latest album
We can’t remember the last time we attended a concert at the Convention Centre, but we guess Blur is doing it old school.
The musicians began recording the songs in a Kowloon studio during a five-day break from their 2013 tour.
Late last year the new album was finally released, and now we get to reap the fruits of our inspirational metropolis with their live concert.
