It is his first fully independent release, debuting at number 3 on the UK Albums Chart. Across 13 tracks the London-born singer-songwriter and producer draws on minimalist electronic textures, soul-influenced songwriting and sharp atmospheric production, with guest appearances from UK rapper Dave and vocalist Monica Martin. Blake has been one of British music's most decorated artists since winning the Mercury Prize in 2013 for his second album Overgrown, a record the judges called late-night music for the digital age. He has also won two Grammy Awards from nine nominations. The Guardian described Trying Times as consistently impressive, with hooks that are strikingly innovative yet somehow reminiscent. With venues like Le Grand Rex and Astra Kulturhaus selling out fast for artists of this profile, now is the right moment to act.
