Tom Vek Returns! New Album, Single, Radio 1 Play Next Week

Sound the klaxon, Tom Vek is back! Back!! Back!!!

The long departed musician’s last album, ‘We Have Sound’, was released back in 2005. Since then there’s been lots of waiting, a few rumours, and precious little action, but now his return has been confirmed by Zane Lowe.

The Radio 1 DJ has revealed that he’ll be playing new single ‘A Chore’ next Monday (April 18th). The track will be taken from a new album ‘Leisure Seizure’.

DIY will now run around in circles trying to find out more. Tom Vek! Amazing.

Update: courtesy of Zane’s Radio 1 show, we’ve now got a short clip of ‘A Chore’ - check it out on iPlayer - it’s about 21 minutes in.
