THE NEW SINGLE 'COUNCIL ESTATE'
Council Estate, the brand new single from
Tricky, is released on
June 30th. Taken from his debut album for Domino,
Knowle West Boy, released on July 7th, the single features Tricky's first solo vocal performance to appear on a single.
'Council Estate is just me... that song is the upbringing me and friends had. It's the first single I've ever done with just me on vocals. I couldn't whisper that song. I had to come out of myself and do a loud, screaming vocal. I wanted to be a proper frontman on that one.' - Tricky Council Estate.
Knowle West Boy is the album that sums up everything that
Tricky has accomplished since his 1995 Maxinquaye debut. The album sees our misunderstood hero reaching into the post-punk, Two-Tone, reggae, hip hop and pure pop he grew up adoring, twisting it all into surreal
Tricky shapes using his astonishingly accomplished band and a host of great undiscovered singers, and ending up with the most varied and accessible set of his career.
