Massive Attack and Martina Topley Bird Announce Fall Tour

In time for the tour, Topley Bird will be dropping her latest album, Some Place Simple, stateside on Ipecac Recordings on October 26.

Although best known for her contribution to Tricky's breakout debut Maxinquaye, Topley Bird's songbook is also rich with material from her solo albums, the Mercury-nominated Quixotic and Danger Mouse-produced, The Blue God.

Recorded over a week with NinJa sidekick at Damon Albarn's Studio 13, Some Place Simple features selections from those previous albums, reworked, along with four new songs. Sparse, stripped down and raw, Some Place Simple showcases Topley Bird's smoky timbre, an incandescent and ethereal force that rises from an un-mappable yet familiar place, a siren song that calls to the secrets in you.

Eager fans in a few selected cities will be lucky enough to enjoy Martina Topley Bird live when she joins Massive Attack on their tour with Thievery Corporation this October/November; as well as select solo performances on similar routes.
