Graham Coxon has unveiled ‘Castle Park’, a shelved album recorded back in 2011
Shelved for over a decade, the ten-track record arrives alongside full solo reissues.

A solo studio album from Graham Coxon that has sat unreleased for over a decade is finally seeing the light of day.
'Castle Park', which was recorded back in 2011, will arrive on 19th June through Transgressive Records, marking the beginning of an extensive reissue campaign covering Coxon's entire solo output.
The ten-track record came together during sessions with producer Ben Hillier, known for his work on blur's 'Think Tank'. At the time, 'Castle Park' was earmarked as the successor to 'A+E', but blur's return to activity in 2012 meant the album was shelved indefinitely.
Lead single 'Billy Says', which has long been a staple of Coxon's live performances, is available now.
Alongside 'Castle Park', Coxon's first two solo records - 1998 debut 'The Sky Is Too High' and 2000 follow-up 'The Golden D' - will also be reissued on 19th June. Over the following twelve months, the remaining studio albums and soundtrack works will follow.
In addition to the catalogue news, Coxon will return to the stage at the O2 Forum Kentish Town in London on 28th November - his first full-band show in over ten years. General sale tickets become available on 24th April at 9am BST.
