Stars
David Byrne has always been pleasantly weird and experimental and he once again tries to push the musical envelope. What results from that sincere push is at best, a mess however. It's a mash up of different sounds and influences that, when it works, can be refreshing and exhilarating, but those moments are far too often undercut by clunky breakdowns and unnecessary introductions of new elements.
'Stop Making Sense' was directed by one of Talking Heads’ biggest fans, who captured the band at the height of their powers in 1983.
David Byrne's ‘Theater of the Mind’ opened on August 31, 2022 at Denver's Center for the Performing Arts where you'll be guided through sensory experiments that reveal the inner mysteries of the brain.
Collaborating with some New York fixtures, David Byrne is bringing the city Social!, an experimental socially distanced dance club held at Park Avenue Armory.
One is for the benefit of American Democracy, the other for the Carrizo/Comecrudo Tribe of Texas, and both compilations will be available on Bandcamp.
David Byrne will take the show first to Boston’s Emerson Colonial Theatre from September 11-28, 2019 and then to 1,500 capacity Hudson Theatre on Broadway for 16 weeks.
Trying to explain the genre-less nature of XXXTENTACION, David Byrne, and Jack White’s latest albums
We're back and this time we're discussing a lot of notable happenings in music like Tekashi 6ix9ine's interview where he gets the better of the usually on point Charlamagne, Drake, Snoop Dogg, and SoundCloud rap's first number ones, and Cardi B finally giving a release date for her debut album. We then question if it's still right to listen to R. Kelly's music despite the seemingly neverending string of sexual abuse allegations. And end things by giving our thoughts and reactions to the latest albums from XXXTENTACION, David Byrne, and Jack White, and struggle to explain the genre-less nature of them all.
