Squeeze - Trixies (Pink LP) [VINYL]

Trixies - the brand new studio album by Squeeze - could have been their very first record. Written by Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook when they were just 19 and 16 respectively, Trixies is a concept album born of imagination and nostalgia. Inspired by a fictional members' club dreamt up in the early 1970s and imagined as existing in the “future” (the 1980s), the album channels a world reminiscent of a 1920s or 30s speakeasy – glamourous, smoky, and populated by colourful characters. Although the album was demo-ed at the time it was never released, and only revisited decades later. Now, the record is fully realised with today’s musicianship and production, combining teenage brilliance with seasoned artistry; its lyrical themes and narrative sweep offering fertile ground for storytelling and immersive campaign touchpoints. Live performance reviews have already highlighted some of the unreleased tracks, often with a dramatic, musical theatre feel, affirming this as one of Squeeze’s most ambitious and imaginative albums to date.
