After the release of Love This Giant last year, David Byrne & St Vincent embarked on a tour of North America and Australia that was like nothing they’d ever done beforedrums, keys and Annie and David supported by 8 choreographed brass players. They did the new material, but also a lot of recognizable songs, arranged for that group. It turned out rather well. Touring a group that size with a fairly complex show was a big financial gulp, and it’s taken them a while to collect enough offers in North America and Europe, but now they are in and we kick off in a few weeks.
Offering a taste of what they’re up to – they’ve put together an EP to give folks a taste of what to expect. It has one song that didnt make it on the record (a waltz featuring some lovely glass harmonica), a couple of energized remixes of some of the album tunes and two live tracks of the sort of more familiar material they perform in the set…
Did we say its FREE? Well it is. Grab it below here…
