It’s been more than two decades since Sananda Maitreya last headlined a UK tour. Now, with nine dates booked, he’s returning not simply to revisit the past, but to present the “totality” of a career that’s defied the industry’s rulebook. In this interview, Sananda is frank and philosophical: on the early triumphs and bruises of Introducing the Hardline, the misunderstood brilliance of Neither Fish Nor Flesh, and a post-millennium body of work shaped by fierce independence. Along the way, he pays tribute to kindred spirits from George Michael to Sade, recalls the Beatles as his first great awakening, and reflects on the personal cost and profound rewards of following his own compass.
