Recinto Ferial de la Fica

Bloc Party are an English rock band formed in London in 1999 by Kele Okereke and Russell Lissack. Their first four albums featured Gordon Moakes and Matt Tong, who have since left the band. The current lineup includes Louise Bartle and Harry Deacon. Their music combines elements of rock, electronica, and house music. The band adopted the name Bloc Party in 2003 after initially performing under various names. Moakes joined after responding to an NME advertisement, and Tong was selected through an audition. The band gained attention after sharing their demo 'She's Hearing Voices' with BBC Radio 1 DJ Steve Lamacq and Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos. Their debut album, 'Silent Alarm,' was released in February 2005 and received critical acclaim, winning the Indie Album of the Year at the 2006 PLUG Awards and NME Album of the Year.
