Bloc Party To Audition New Singers

Bloc Party have confirmed that they will be recording without Kele Okereke.

According to guitarist Russell Lissack, the band will also be auditioning new singers.

Lissack told NME: “It’s not really a secret because Kele’s been pretty busy doing solo stuff and it looks like he’s going to be doing that a bit longer. The other three of us wanted to meet up and make music. We were talking about just doing an instrumental thing, but now we might get a singer as well, to properly put some music out and play some shows.”

Lissack added that there were no “bad vibes” between Okereke and the rest of the band, but confirmed that he hadn’t spoken to the singer for “a couple of months.”
