In 2023, as his triumphant „American Utopia” era came to a close after morphing from an album and tour into an acclaimed Broadway show and then a Spike Lee-directed HBO film, David Byrne began jotting down the occasional groove, chord or melody. During the tumultuous three prior years, Byrne, started compiling lyric ideas and phrases for possible songs. With the world on pause, like much of humanity, David took the opportunity to ask, “Do I like what I'm doing? Does any of it matter?" Byrne’s attempts to answer those weighty questions can be found on „Who Is The Sky?”, a first-time collaboration between himself, Grammy-winning producer Kid Harpoon and New York-based chamber ensemble Ghost Train Orchestra, and featuring guest appearances by Paramore’s Hayley Williams, longtime collaborator St. Vincent and The Smile drummer Tom Skinner. The album builds upon the optimistic themes laid out by „American Utopia”. Byrne continues his lifelong exploration of human connection and the potential for societal unity against the chaotic backdrop of the world. Don't miss him live! July 1, Tent Stage!
