Artist: KELE
Bloc Party‘s frontman
Track: HOMETOWN EDGE

“I realise London has been a constant source of inspiration for me as a songwriter. In my writing it’s always been there on the periphery, but it felt right doing something where my love for the city was front and centre. Over the years, life in the capital has shaped who I am and what I am, so it was nice to pay homage to that.”

Jaunty tune. Cheerful vibe.
