David Byrne

Musical polymath David Byrne says his current tour is "the most ambitious show I’ve done since the shows that were filmed for Stop Making Sense." That's the Talking Heads tour immortalized on film by Jonathan Demme (and, yes, the one with the gigantic suit), so you know Byrne has big plans for his current 12-piece band. They are on the road with his latest album, American Utopia, but will play music from all phases of his musical history. With Benjamin Clementine.

This performance is an all seated / reserved event. Doors 7:00 P.M. / Show 8:00 P.M.

press release:

David Byrne says of Madison opener Benjamin Clementine: “I was introduced to Benjamin Clementine’s music through a friend. I was floored! I asked him to perform in the 2015 #MeltdownFest I curated in London and am honored to have him join me at various stops along the #AmericanUtopia US Tour!”
