Trickster - Still Kicking (Live Version)


At the tender age of 10, Trickster ran away from home with the hope of reuniting his parents. This early act of determination set the stage for a life filled with audacity and ambition. Despite facing rejection from music school due to doubts about his talent, Trickster's passion for music remained unwavering. He started playing the piano at the age of 3 and resigned to performing in strip clubs by the time he turned 16. 

Trickster's path took unpredictable turns, including brushes with the law and a prison sentence at the age of 18 for financial missteps. However, these setbacks did not define him. Trickster became a polyglot, speaking an impressive 11 languages, and even served as a pilot and a soldier. Along his extraordinary journey, he traveled to 97 countries, leaving behind an indelible mark wherever he went. 

While Trickster experienced both highs and lows, his commitment to charitable causes remained constant. Through his success in high-risk oil and gas transactions in Latin America, he was fortunate enough to make a difference. He generously donated nearly 50% of his income to those in need and actively supported charity events. Trickster's life took a dramatic turn in 2017 during a perilous car accident in South France. 

Depicted in his latest single release ‘Still Kicking’, the incident resulted in the loss of all his physical assets, engulfed in a ball of flames, including evidence crucial to his work, which led to another - unjust - run in with the law. Astonishingly, he survived the accident unscathed, defying all odds and leaving authorities and witnesses astounded.

Enjoy the song - amazingly performed - and the video. Also, give Trickster a follow on social media.
