The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas welcomes Bloc Party and Santigold to
the Boulevard Pool on Saturday, Aug. 11 at 9 p.m.

After announcing their highly-anticipated return from hiatus, Bloc Party brings their U.S. tour to The
Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Bloc Party's debut album, Silent Alarm, was released in 2005 to widespread
acclaim. Follow-up's included Silent Alarm Remixed, the EP Helicopter, A Weekend in the City, and
Intimacy. The band is currently in the studio working on their first new album since the 2008 release of
Intimacy.
In conjunction with her sophomore album "Master of My Make-Believe," out May 1, Santigold has
embarked on a multi-city U.S. and Canadian tour. Though relatively fresh as Santigold, Santi White's
history of writing, production, and performance stretch beyond the century's flip. Her collaboration with the
industry's most recognized and respected talent is something continuous and wide reaching, making her
musical lineage all the much richer. Declared Best Breakthrough Artist by NME in 2008 and Pop Music
Vanguard by ASCAP in 2009, the voice that defines Santigold is as complex as the faces that pack a
subway car, as intimate and honest as conversation on a weathered stoop.

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas features artists at the forefront of the touring world and emerging artists
that will inspire the next musical movements coupled with spectacularly-designed, technology-driven
venues. The excitement of live-music and sports action spills onto the casino floor from Book & Stage, an
upscale sports and entertainment lounge, while live DJs fill the rhythmic and vibrant hot-spot Bond with
the best in house-music. Finally, The Chandelier, a dramatic inhabitable three-story architectural wonder,
created by 2 million luminous crystals, that houses three unique bar experiences: high-energy hot spot,
sophisticated cocktail retreat and inviting lounge.
