Live Nation concert – Bazart - 10 jaar Bazart > Extra show!

Op vrijdag 25 juni 2027 in De Roma, Antwerpen

Bazart viert dit jaar hun 10-jarig bestaan, maar het grote feest volgt volgend jaar samen met de fans op het podium van De Roma in Antwerpen. De ticketverkoop gaat hard en het enthousiasme is groot: fans willen massaal meevieren. Zaterdag 26, zondag 27, maandag 28 en dinsdag 29 juni zijn al uitverkocht, daarom voegt de band nog een extra show toe op vrijdag 25 juni 2027. Zo kan iedereen deel uitmaken van dit bijzondere verjaardagsfeest! Tickets zijn beschikbaar via livenation.be en deroma.be.

Laat ons eerlijk zijn: Bazart heeft geen introductie meer nodig. Wat tien jaar geleden begon als een Antwerps project rond Mathieu Terryn, Simon Nuytten en Oliver Symons groeide uit tot een van de belangrijkste namen binnen de Nederlandstalige popmuziek. Met albums als 'Echo', '2', 'Onderweg' en 'EXIT' bleef de band zichzelf vernieuwen zonder hun herkenbare sound te verliezen. Hits als "Goud", "Chaos", "Grip (Omarm Me)" en "Denk Maar Niet Aan Morgen" groeiden uit tot moderne klassiekers, terwijl nieuwe nummers "Begin Opnieuw" en "Nacht In Amsterdam" tonen dat Bazart blijft evolueren.

Ook live weet Bazart telkens indruk te maken. Van uitverkochte concertzalen tot grote festivalpodia: hun shows combineren moeiteloos intimiteit met meeslepende energie.

Tien jaar Bazart verdient een feest om nooit te vergeten! Naast zaterdag 26, zondag 27, maandag 28 en dinsdag 29 juni kunnen fans nu ook op vrijdag 25 juni 2027 samen met Bazart deze bijzondere mijlpaal vieren.

Tickets zijn beschikbaarvia livenation.be en deroma.be en kosten €39 - €37 (inclusief servicekosten).

Deze concerten zijn een coproductie tussen De Roma en Live Nation.

V2 records news – Kelela – album ‘new avatar’

KELELA Shares new tour dates and single
"point blank"
ALBUM "NEW AVATAR" OUT 10 JULY
Kelela – point blank - WARP
2 November live @ La Madeleine, Brussel

Kelela releases "point blank," the third single from her upcoming album new avatar, out July 10th via Warp Records. Produced by Oscar Scheller, the track arrives as a gift to fans alongside the announcement and live pre-sale of her first full multinational tour in years: new avatar live.

Following "idea 1" and "linknb," "point blank" centers on the emotional weight of romantic misogynoir and the labor of loving someone who mistakes your care for endless resource. Kelela brings her friends into the conversation, naming a dynamic many know but rarely hear articulated this clearly. The bridge is where the song exhales — the one moment of physical satisfaction in a track that otherwise refuses to give an inch. She's not asking for more. She's taking what she wants and leaving the rest behind.

"I first outline the baseline dynamic, which is that we're expected to endure men's inability to self-regulate," she explains. "The fantasy many of us are invested in is one where we do such a good job of holding space that it starts to rub off on our partner over time, eventually inducing some sort of revelation and building their emotional maturity. Yet the more we pour into men, the more entitled they become." In Kelela's words: "We are down bad."

In support of new avatar, Kelela will embark on her new avatar live world tour, marking her most anticipated live run and her first time bringing this scale of show to audiences across North America, Europe, and the UK. Local presales begin Wednesday, June 3 at 12 PM local time. Public on-sale begins Friday, June 5 at 10 AM local time. Tickets available HERE.

Oct 27 – Paris, FR – Élysée Montmartre

Nov 2 – Brussels, BE – La Madeleine

Nov 3 – Amsterdam, NL – Paradiso

MORE ABOUT KELELA
Throughout her globally revered, boundary-pushing career, Kelela has established a lane of her own in R&B and electronic music. On her long-awaited third album, new avatar, the singer/songwriter (through the versatility of the guitar) challenges perceptions of these genres, while weaving together fragments of lived experiences to shape a world of connection and resilience during times of unrest.

The songs journey through Black femme rage, joy as resistance, Gotham City-esque dystopia, misogynoir, romantic tension, and more. It's anchored by production that demands a broader rethink about alternative, rock and indie music.

Kelela's defiant nature has propelled her so far already — from her hometown of Washington, D.C. to world stages. In 2013, she released her debut mixtape, Cut 4 Me. She continued solidifying her revolutionary R&B sound with 2015's Hallucinogen EP, with The New York Times naming its single, "Rewind," one of the "25 Songs That Tell Us Where Music Is Going." By 2017, she released her electric debut album Take Me Apart (followed by 2018's TAKE ME A_PART, THE REMIXES), building upon her intimate storytelling.

After a nearly five-year hiatus, she returned in 2023 with her groundbreaking second album, Raven, and its critically acclaimed counterpart, RAVE:N, The Remixes in 2024. Raven has been hailed as one of the Best Albums of 2023 by Pitchfork, Billboard, Vulture, Variety, and more, while the remixes solidified her as a leader in the dance music space.

In 2025, Kelela showcased yet another innovative side of her artistry with her live album In The Blue Light, which hit #5 on the Contemporary Jazz chart and #20 on the Jazz Albums chart. Now, with new avatar, Kelela displays the masterful intention she puts into forming new sonic cityscapes. But don't confuse it with escapism: "I don't want the music to be a distraction from what's really going on in the world; I want it to help you get into it."
