Iconic 90s rockstar ‘blows away’ fans with surprise appearance on stage in remote Cornish town
A MUSIC legend shocked fans on Saturday by appearing out of nowhere on stage at a gig.
The appearance was totally unannounced, and the venue’s owner didn’t even know they were going to walk out.
Musician Afel Bocoum was performing his set at The Cornish Bank when Blur and Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn sent the crowd into a frenzy.
He then performed a surprise set with Afel’s band.
Speaking to CornwallLive about the impromptu visitor Rufus Maurice, owner of The Cornish Bank, said: “Thought you might be interested in our surprise guest last night.
“No one knew he was in the room till he jumped on stage and did a melodica set with the band.”
Fans of the singer were heard blurting out, “That’s Damon Albarn, it f*****g is!!,” in the crowd.
Damon is said to have described Cornwall as a “lovely place”.
He lives along the coast of South Devon, but is rumoured to be recording projects near Falmouth.
This isn’t the first time Damon has surprised crowds by suddenly hopping out on a stage.
In 2006 he did the same thing with his Blur bandmates at the Marlboro Club in Ilfracombe.
