Following the news of Tony Allen’s passing, Gorillaz have shared new song ‘How Far?’, featuring both Tony and Skepta.
Recorded in London, the song honours Tony, who was a long-time friend and collaborator with Damon Albarn, appearing as the drummer for supergroup The Good, The Bad & The Queen.
“The track was written and recorded with Skepta in London just before lockdown and is being shared immediately as a tribute to the spirit of a great man, Tony Allen,” an accompanying statement reads.
