Graham Coxon - Blur / Solo Artist / The WAEVE shares stories of influence, creativity and working with Paul Weller

My guest on this episode of The Paul Weller Fan Podcast is one of
the most inventive and distinctive guitarists of his generation -
the co-founder and guitarist of Blur, a prolific solo artist, and
a musician whose restless creativity has taken him from Britpop
to freeform jazz, from noisy riffs to tender melodies.


Graham Coxon has collaborated with Paul Weller
on some fantastic projects over the years - the sharp-edged 'This
Old Town' (2007), the soulful 'Black River' from the 22 Dreams
album in 2008 and the swirling 'Dragonfly' from Sonik Kicks being
just some examples, along with the gloriously chaotic 'Bankbusted
Nuclear Detergent Blues', alongside Weller, Damon Albarn, and the
poet Michael Horovitz.


From discovering The Jam as a teenager and picking up his
sister’s old guitar, to standing on stage years later beside his
musical hero - this is the story of admiration, influence, and a
shared love of great British songwriting.
