David Byrne & St. Vincent Tour Dates Announced

One of the year’s most anticipated tours finds former Talking Heads front man David Byrne teaming up with Annie Clark, better known as St. Vincent. The pair have teamed up for a collaborative album that was recently completed after two and a half years of work. Titled Love This Giant, the LP will drop on September 11 and will be followed by a 24-date tour.

Love This Giant features 10 out of 12 songs written collaboratively as well as a song a piece contributed individually by Byrne and Clark. We’re particularly excited to hear LTG track The One Who Broke Your Heart, which features contributions from HT faves the Dap-Kings and Antibalas. For now, you can download the album’s lead single entitled Who…

Each show will feature material from Love This Giant as well as tracks from each performer’s catalog. “We’ll be doing these songs and a bunch of songs that we suspect people will know, with a group that includes eight brass players, a keyboardist and a drummer,” David Byrne explained in a statement.
