The Good, The Bad and The Queen Live in Concert

The Good, The Bad & The Queen isn't a band. It's more of a project, featuring Blur frontman Damon Albarn, The Clash bassist Paul Simonon, Afrobeat pioneer and drummer Tony Allen and former Verve guitarist Simon Tong. Together the quartet is making some of the smartest and catchiest -- if moodiest -- Britpop and rock to reach the U.S. in years. Hear the group recorded live in concert from Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club.

The Good,The Bad & The Queen in Concert

The Good, The Bad & The Queen got its start in Lagos, Nigeria in 2004, when Albarn, Tong and Allen entered the studio with local musicians to write and record an album's worth of material. The project was put on hold when Damon had to return to England to finish producing the album Demon Days by Gorillaz.
