Simon Tong
 

From 2002 to 2003, Tong joined the The Shining along with ex-Verve member Simon Jones.  Their debut CD True Skies was produced by Youth.  Rolling Stone magazine described it as "a transporting mix of hard rock and psychedelia, like Led Zeppelin cavorting with Oasis."

On 10 February 2003, Tong joined the band Blur as a live guitarist.  A source close to the band emphasized that he was not replacing departed guitarist Graham Coxon as a full-time band member.  Tong's association with Blur frontman, Damon Albarn, has continued since. 

Tong is also credited for providing additional (most) guitar-work on a number of tracks on the Gorillaz 2005 album Demon Days.
