Tricky’s Knowle West Boy is set to come out September 9 here in the States, but we have been getting cuddly the first single, “Council Estate,” for quite some time now. The musician is currently in the middle of a tour overseas, his first in five years. We were wondering when he would decide to come to our neck of the woods, and we are happy to say that he has announced some North American dates in the near future.

Tricky will play some select North American markets in the fall, including a stop at The Late Show with David Letterman on September 3. Want to hear more before the show? Head on over to Knowle West Boy to preview the whole album and check out exclusive video clips of the new single as well as a mini-documentary.
