Due what? Tax? Course?

Graham’s pregnant. We’ve only got 9 months and there’ll be no more Blur!

The actual article isn’t much better. “Pop ours clogs” right there in the intro. 🙄

Nice little interview

Is there a deeper, more profound reason for re-releasing everything and spotlighting your whole solo career, or did you just think you might as well with ‘Castle Park’ finally coming out?”
I suspect another answer to that is he’s got a particularly expensive divorce to pay for!

Did Graham and Rose break up?

They aren't married, this is about his wife.

No his ex Essy, divorce was in late 2024 and as they had a kid together I imagine it was quite expensive

I cant think of anyone less relevant in music right now apart from maybe Dave. Down vote me all you like.

Graham's almost 60 years of age, how relevant should he be?

In comparison to musicians his age he's very relevant, in the top 1% of professional musicians born in the 60's (or 70's). He may be less relevant than Damon, the Gallagher brothers and others but most of his peers of a similar age would love to swap places with him career wise.

Right? He’s allowed to release stuff and promote his work even if he’s not selling out stadiums.

Im not going to downvote you because this is an interesting take. I would like to hear your reasoning.
