Mista Trick Collective, a high-energy 7-piece swing & bass band, are excited to announce their debut UK tour, launching in February 2023. Tickets are on sale now. A full list of dates can be found below.
The band is founded by Bristol based DJ, Mista Trick, who is at the forefront of the swing & bass scene across the UK and Europe, and instrumental in developing the popular Swing & Bass record label and club nights in London. After mixing live elements into his remixes, introducing impressive musicians, rappers, and vintage swing vocalists, Elle & The Pocket Belles, the Mista Trick Collective was born.
This musical fusion is in a league of its own, taking swing & bass to the next level. Mixing vintage, vaudeville vibes with distinctly down and dirty drum & bass, the resulting sound is like the lovechild of a wartime knees-up in an underground rave!
The ‘Do What You Do’ tour, follows the release of their debut album ‘You’ earlier this year, where Mista Trick took on the challenge of creating his own original tracks with a collection of artists. The album has seen huge success, including tracks: ‘Do What You Do’ featuring Kathika (AKA Kathika Rabbit) from Slamboree, ‘About to Blow’ featuring guest vocal performances from Tenisha Edwards and Blackout JA, and ‘Drive’ featuring long-time collaborators Elle & The Pocket Belles.
After a packed summer 2022 festival tour, including Glastonbury, Boomtown, Wilderness, Shambala, Secret Garden Party, and Camp Bestival amongst others, the ‘Do What You Do’ tour promises to bring the Mista Trick Collective signature sound and engaging stage presence to a city near you.
The tour kicks off in Norwich on 25 February, making stops in cities including London, Oxford, Bristol and Leeds. Don’t miss out, grab your tickets now.
Mista Trick said:
‘I’m so excited to bring our music to venues around the UK in 2023. This year has been huge for the Mista Trick Collective. Showcasing fully original tracks from our debut album across some of the biggest festivals in the UK was a dream come true for me and the band. The response from audiences has been incredible, overwhelming even, and we can’t wait to bring that big festival energy to fans, old and new, at our first UK tour!’
