Gorillaz made an emotional return to the live stage last month with two sold out shows at London’s O2 Arena. The band are recognised by The Guinness Book Of World Records as the planet’s Most Successful Virtual Act.

The BRIT and Grammy Award winning band’s subsequent albums are Demon Days (2005), Plastic Beach (2010), The Fall (2011), Humanz (2017), The Now Now (2018) and Song Machine – Season One: Strange Timez (2020).Ī truly global phenomenon, Gorillaz have achieved success in entirely ground-breaking and unique ways, touring the world from San Diego to Syria, Montevideo to Manchester and winning numerous awards including the coveted Jim Henson Creativity Honor.

Virtual band Gorillaz is singer 2D, bassist Murdoc Niccals, guitarist Noodle and drummer Russel Hobbs. Created by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, their acclaimed eponymous debut album was released in 2001. Today, Secret Sounds is back with more good news! Gorillaz will follow up their Splendour set with headline tour dates in Sydney and Melbourne. When Gorillaz were announced as Splendour in the Grass headliners a frenzy of excitement ensued. Long before online concerts and festivals became a thing, one truly trailblazing band ruled the virtual space, seamlessly meshing music, art and technology like no other. About “…this spectacle of a show creates what you can only call feel-good magic.” The Guardian UK
