Graham Leslie Coxon (born 12 March 1969) is an English musician, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and painter who came to prominence as a founding member of the rock band Blur. As the group's lead guitarist and secondary vocalist, Coxon is featured on all of Blur's studio discography (although 2003's Think Tank only features his playing on one track, due to his temporary departure from the band during recording sessions for the album). He has also led a solo career since 1998, producing and playing all instrumentation on his solo albums. As well as being a musician, Coxon is a visual artist: he designed the cover art for all his solo albums as well as Blur's 13 (1999).

"Hardcore Blur fans and Coxon fans may disagree, but overall A+E is a fairly uninspired and disappointing effort from a musician who can offer, and has done so in the past, something a lot better than this."
However, it is not an album worthy of sitting high on your record collection, rather an album that deserves a good listen here and there.
A + E is Graham Coxon shot out of a cannon: loud and brash, revelling in angsty noise.
