" Paul Draper has unveiled his debut solo track &amp;#039;Feeling My Heart Run Slow&amp;#039;. The song from the ex-Mansun frontman was played over the PA on August 23 at a convention held in Chester in honour of his former band.      Mansun released three studio albums - Attack of the Grey Lantern (1997), Six (1998) and Little Kix (2000) - during their lifetime. The posthumous Kleptomania, made up of sessions from an aborted fourth album, followed in 2004. After the band&amp;#039;s split, Draper performed at the closing &amp;#039;Demolition Ball&amp;#039; concert at London&amp;#039;s Astoria, joining My Vitriol on stage for a rendition of Mansun&amp;#039;s 1996 single &amp;#039;Wide Open Space&amp;#039;.  He has since worked with Skin, DJ Mason, The Joy Formidable and others. Following an appearance on BBC 6 Music, fansite South of the Painted Hall set up a Facebook petition in return &amp;quot;for Mansun&amp;#039;s Paul Draper to release his long-awaited solo album&amp;quot;. Draper said in response: &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t take it lightly that people are showing an interest in me releasing my songs in a solo capacity so I hope the petition goes well.&amp;quot;  Draper later told Digital Spy: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m really excited that so many people remember Mansun fondly, the band seems to have had a renaissance recently for some reason. &amp;quot;So in the New Year I&amp;#039;m going to very seriously consider releasing something, let&amp;#039;s just see.&amp;quot; Earlier this year, Draper&amp;#039;s collaborative project with Catherine AD (Catherine Anne Davies), The Anchoress, released their own debut track &amp;#039;What Goes Around&amp;#039;.
