Bloc Party Recruits Canadian Bands
Canadian fans of Bloc Party will be treated to a ton of homegrown talent during the British band’s upcoming tour.
Beginning in March, Montreal’s We Are Wolves, Toronto’s Holy Fuck and Victoria’s Hot Hot Heat will take turns opening for Bloc Party across 10 Canadian shows.
Bloc Party, currently touring Europe behind last year’s “Intimacy,” will kick off their North American trek with a March 13 show in Toronto, which We Are Wolves will support.
The band’s second Toronto show the following day will feature Holy Fuck, who will continue to serve as openers for shows in London, Ottawa and Montreal.
