Blur and Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn and Grian Chatten of Fontaines D.C. collaborate on a new song called “Flags” for the upcoming benefit album HELP(2).
The track also includes vocals from musician and poet Kae Tempest, as well as instrumental contributions from Johnny Marr and Portishead’s Adrian Utley.
As previously reported, HELP(2) will raise money for War Child UK, which supports children affected by conflict around the world. It’s a sequel to War Child UK’s 1995 Help compilation.
“Recording ‘Flags’ was a genuinely joyful two days, with a strong sense of purpose throughout the building,” Albarn says in a statement. “I was particularly struck by the decision to employ children to do all the filming in the studio – it felt inspiring and directly reinforced the point we were trying to make about communicating with kids, by involving them in the process itself.”
HELP(2) will be released March 6. It also includes the new Arctic Monkeys song, “Opening Night,” as well as contributions from The Last Dinner Party, Portishead’s Beth Gibbons, Depeche Mode, beabadoobee, Wet Leg, Fontaines D.C. and Foals.

Chappell Roan took advantage of some downtime in Australia to hang out at a legendary dive bar, where the owner reports that she acted just like “a normal human.”
Chappell is part of the Laneway Festival tour, which played Sydney on Sunday and will move to Melbourne on Friday. According to James Young, the owner of Cherry Bar in Melbourne, Chappell and her crew stopped by the establishment on Wednesday and stayed for more than two hours.
In his social media post about the visit, James wrote that at the time of Chappell’s visit, there were only about 17 customers in the bar. “Didn’t take any pictures of her, cos that would be uncool, but can report that she drank a couple of mocktails and was very modest, polite and lovely,” he wrote, noting that she didn’t “hide” in the VIP bar.
“She stood the whole time at our main bar downstairs. This means everything. We think she’s the biggest artist on the planet. She thinks… she’s just a normal human. Gold,” he wrote. “Her crew were especially supportive of Cherry Bar, so that was nice too.” He added, “Also I was DJing tonight, so it was very satisfying to see Chappell embracing the ‘local sounds’ of underground Australia.”
According to Billboard, Cherry Bar is an institution, having first opened in 1999 at a different location, and has hosted drinking sessions by the likes of Metallica and Noel Gallagher of Oasis. The bar has also booked multiple artists before they blew up, including Billie Eilish and Charli XCX.

Following the mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, Canada, that left eight people dead, Michael Bublé, who is from British Columbia, the same Canadian province where the shooting took place, posted a heartfelt message on Instagram.
Michael called the shooting “devastating,” adding that his “heart is broken for the families and loved ones who are facing the kind of grief no one should ever have to endure.”
“As a father, a senseless tragedy like this hits in a place that is hard to put into words,” he continued, going on to say, “I can’t begin to comprehend the pain they are living through.”
Michael, a native of Burnaby, British Columbia, wrote that his “deepest prayers” are with the “parents, students, teachers, first responders and the entire Tumbler Ridge community … and everyone affected by this unimaginable act of violence.”
“One of the things that defines us as Canadians is how we show up for each other even in the darkest moments,” he concludes. “And now more than ever, we must come together and support one another, as our neighbours navigate this unfathomable loss and heartbreak.”
On Wednesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced seven days of mourning, with flags being flown half-staff across all government buildings.
Tumbler Ridge is located roughly 730 miles northeast of Vancouver.
