2012 Tricky Maxinquaye Tour
06 Mar, 2012 blogAs the world has received to great delight - musician, producer and actor Tricky will reunite on stage with vocalist / musician Martina Topley-Bird for the first time in 15 years to perform his award-winning debut album 'Maxinquaye' in its entirety.
We are delighted to confirm that Tricky will be performing in Manchester and also coming home to the place it first ever started and the world changed, Bristol, for the first gig of his 'Maxinquaye'. This is in addition to his previously announced performance on Friday, 27th April, 2012 at the first-ever Sundance London at London's 02.
As a performer, Tricky is probably best known as a trail blazer in the Bristol trip-hop scene of the early 1990s, and his album 'Maxinquaye' helped define "The Bristol Sound." Tricky first came to the public's attention performing and co-writing on three tracks from Massive Attack's critically acclaimed and multi-platinum debut 'Blue Lines'LP (1991). Expanding on the sonic template of his fellow Bristolians, and featuring then-girlfriend Martina Topley-Bird on vocals, 'Maxinquaye' is a dark, mysterious album featuring a combination of hip-hop, soul, dub, rock and electronica. Alison Goldfrapp also featured on the track 'Pumpkin'.
Signed to Island Records, 'Maxinquaye' proved a UK top 3 album success, selling in excess of 500,000 copies worldwide. The seminal album was also a critical success being ranked number 1 on NME & Melody Maker's Top Albums of 1995 and shortlisted for the 1995 Mercury Prize. In addition, it was placed highly in Q's 100 Greatest British Albums, Mojo's 100 Modern Classics and Rolling Stone's Essential Recordings of the 90s amongst others.
