David Byrne seldom tours. That all changes with the introduction of his first album in six years with the announcement of “American Utopia” out March 9 via Nonesuch. And with the news of a new album comes the tour dates. For those of us not alive during the Talking Heads peak, this piece of news is huge because Byrne is quoted as saying “the most ambitious show I’ve done since the shows that were filmed for Stop Making Sense.” It’s a rare treat considering that Byrne looks to close out the “American Utopia” tour in Red Rocks!
Listen to the first piece below, a collaboration with Brian Eno, with the single “Everybody’s Coming to My House.”
Presale access for the newly announced European headline shows will be available to those who register HERE before 5pm (UTC) Wednesday, January 17. Fans will then be emailed a private link for the presale, which will begin at10am (UTC) Thursday, January 18. Fans who register for European presale will have an option to pre-order the new album. All online ticket purchases for US will receive a CD of the new album.
