Blur, whose last five albums all hit number 1 in the UK album charts, hasn’t released a new album since 2003’s ‘Think Tank’. The band split soon after but reformed in 2009 with high-profile headline slots at Glastonbury and T in the Park, and a one-off show in London’s Hyde Park.

“We’re very excited to be able to offer our customers such a sought after ticket-offer in partnership with Blur, one of the UK’s most iconic bands,” said Director of Amazon EU Digital Music, Steve Bernstein. “Blur have a huge summer ahead of them and Amazon customers will be first in line for tickets to their major Hyde Park show.”
