One Man Party

Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke lands in ‘In the Loop’ territory tonight, with a date at The Karova in Ballarat. The tour supports his second album, Trick, released towards the end of last year. Recorded in London and New York, the album, the follow-up to 2010’s The Boxer, saw Kele dive headfirst into electronic music, scoring a good chunk of warm press in the process. Speaking with online pop culture magazine PopMatters, Kele said: “Making this record gave me more confidence to sing in a lower register. With Bloc Party’s music being so high energy and high strung, my vocals reflected that, so singing in a lower register or a gentler, more masculine tone was something I’d not really done so much.”
