"Blur have announced plans to debut two new tracks next month. The band will perform &amp;#039;Under The Westway&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;The Puritan&amp;#039; live via a Twitter stream on July 2 from 6.15pm.  &amp;quot;I wrote these songs for Hyde Park and I&amp;#039;m really excited about getting out there and playing them for people,&amp;quot; frontman Damon Albarn explained. Tony Wang, UK general manager of Twitter, added: &amp;quot;People all over the world are connecting with the musicians they love on Twitter.  &amp;quot;Blur is taking this idea even further by debuting two new songs through a live stream and having a direct conversation with their fans on the platform. They know what their fans want and are setting the pace for the future of artist engagement online.&amp;quot; The first track will be performed at 6.15pm and will be followed by an exclusive interview with the band. The second track will then be performed at 7.15pm. Following the live stream, both songs will be available to download. A limited edition double-A 7-inch single will be released by Parlophone on August 6. Blur will perform three warm-up gigs ahead of their sold-out show in London&amp;#039;s Hyde Park, which takes place on August 12.
