Bloc Party

In March 2016, Bloc Party delivered a live performance at the ACL Moody Theater during SXSW, a time when the band was promoting their album 'Hymns.' Released earlier that year, 'Hymns' marked a significant evolution in their sound, showcasing a more electronic and experimental approach compared to their earlier work. This album also saw a lineup change, with guitarist Russell Lissack and bassist Justin Harris showcasing new dynamics alongside frontman Kele Okereke. The SXSW 2016 performance was crucial in reintroducing the band to fans, particularly after a four-year hiatus since their previous record, 'Four.' This energetic show captured the essence of their journey, reflecting both nostalgia and the new direction of their music. With heartfelt lyrics and an electric atmosphere, the performance highlighted Bloc Party's ability to captivate audiences, reminding everyone why they remain a powerhouse in the indie rock scene.
