In a world of generic pop and manufactured boy bands, two visionaries birthed a band that blurred the lines between music and art, resulting in a body of work that has been innovative and highly influential for over 20 years. Gorillaz is a virtual band created by Blur's Damon Albarn and graphic artist Jamie Hewlett, who wanted to comment on mainstream pop culture while pushing the boundaries of creativity. Their music can be described as a melting pot of various genres, with collaborations being a cornerstone of their musical journey. The band's virtual and animated nature has allowed them to experiment with different sounds, inspiring a new generation of artists, and redefining what it means to be a "real" band. Experience their unique identity and music through their legacy of eclectic sounds and multimedia storytelling.
