Mitch Sanders and longtime collaborator and solo artist Marta Zlakowska, who feature on the new album, Different When It's Silent , will be joining Tricky on all dates, with Zlakowska also serving as the opening act. Tickets are available from venues and on the Tricky website .

Different When It's Silent , Tricky's critically-acclaimed 15th studio album and first full-length release under his own name in six years, was released July 17th via his own label, False Idols. Recorded between his home in France and sessions in Bristol, the album reconnects with the distinctive sonic language that has defined Tricky's work since his groundbreaking debut, Maxinquaye.

The album showcases Bristol vocalist Mitch Sanders, whose voice features prominently throughout. Sharing a similar background to Tricky, Sanders brings a sense of community to the record through their shared Bristol roots. Across fourteen tracks, Tricky moves fluidly between skeletal blues, distorted guitars, stark hip-hop rhythms and electronics.
