Overview
Damon Albarn and Graham Coxon performed a brand new Blur song during this year's pre-Brit Awards fundraising gig in London last night (February 19).
The pair unveiled 'Under The Westway' during their three-song set, which took place at Shepherd's Bush Empire.
The song is the first new material to be aired by the band since 'Fool's Day', which was released as a limited edition vinyl and download as part of Record Store Day in 2010.
Introducing the song, Albarn said: It's got a lot of words - for me anyway - but not as many as Ed Sheeran has.
Blur will be performing at the BRIT Awards ceremony tomorrow night.
The band will receive the Outstanding Contribution To Music Award during the ceremony at the O2 Arena on February 21.
Speaking about the award, Damon Albarn has said "recognition for all the work and all the heartache that has gone into this band."
