Here's a reason to love Bloc Party

Perth in Western Australia has been hit by some terrible bushfires as of late, and Southbound Festival has had to cancel it's 2016 event. Now while someone has pointed out to me that most bands have taken the time off and have effectively had a 'holiday/vacation', Bloc Party are playing a benefit show for the affected area.

Bloc Party, making life better since 2003. - The full statement from the band is below.

"Perth, we're playing a special benefit show this Sunday (10th) at HBF Stadium Perth to help raise funds for those affected by the bushfires in the South West. Details below with proceeds going to Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery.

Bloc Party Disclosure (DJ set) Birds of Tokyo
