His artistic and musical contribution is featured on all seven of Blur’s studio albums, and he is credited as a songwriter and lyricist on many of Blur’s hits. The cover of 1999’s 13 was also designed by Coxon. Besides guitar, he is famous for recording his albums single-handedly, without much help from session musicians. ★★★Bernard Sumner http://www.converseblog.com/uk/2010/10/bernard-sumner/ Bernard Sumner was a founding member of Joy Division, a post-punk band formed in 1976. As the band’s lead guitarist, Sumner also played keyboards for synth parts with additional vocal appearances. After the death of Joy Division’s singer, Sumner and the remaining members started New Order where Sumner emerged as the band’s permanent lead vocalist and lyricist. Both Joy Division and New Order are widely considered two of the most influential bands of the era. In 1989, Sumner joined up with former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr to form Electronic where Sumner was the lead vocalist and lyricist. In 2007, he formed Bad Lieutenant as vocalist. We hooked up with him in Manchester and talked about his music, influences and how music still is one of his life’s great loves. Check out the video. --
