Tricky live in Brooklyn

Experience Tricky live on October 11th

Tricky is scheduled to perform at Brooklyn Steel on October 11, 2026. Known for pioneering a distinctive sound often categorized as trip-hop, his music blends elements of hip-hop, dub, electronica, and experimental rock. Emerging in the early 1990s, Tricky gained prominence with his debut album *Maxinquaye* (1995), characterized by dark, atmospheric production, unconventional sampling, and his often-whispered vocal delivery. Throughout his career, he has consistently explored themes of paranoia, vulnerability, and inner turmoil through innovative sonic landscapes.

Brooklyn Steel is a performance venue located in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York City. Opened in 2017, it occupies a former steel fabrication warehouse and retains much of its industrial aesthetic. The venue is recognized for its excellent acoustics and unobstructed sightlines; it features a standing-room-only capacity of approximately 1,800 people. Brooklyn Steel quickly established itself as a popular destination for a diverse range of musical acts spanning indie rock, electronic music, hip-hop and more; hosting both established artists and emerging talent. The building's history as an industrial space informs its raw and minimalist design.
