‘Some added surprises’ during the performance have been promised by Kele Okereke.
Kele Okereke will be performing songs from his recently released fourth studio album The Waves Pt. 1 during a livestream on August 4th.
“Knowing that it would be hard for me to tour ‘the waves’ given what’s happening in the world, it was important for me to make a performance of these songs that would exist in the way that I wrote them, just my voice, my guitar and a loop pedal,” he explains. “I wanted people to see the whole process.”
His cover of Smalltown Boy by Bronski Beat is previewing the show:
