David Byrne and St. Vincent Team Up For Collaborative Album and Tour

David Byrne and St. Vincent

It’s always pretty exciting whenever David Byrne announces anything, but this most recent statement really got us going, seeing as he’s collaborating with one of the most talented songwriters of recent years: Annie Clark, better known by her moniker St. Vincent. The two will be releasing a full-length LP, entitled Love This Giant, set to be released September 11th via 4AD and Byrne’s own label, Todo Mundo. And there’s more! The duo will also be departing on a fairly extensive North American tour, scanning East to West in fair proportions, which will undoubtedly be an impressive showcase—seeing the two on stage together.

You can download their first single, “Who,” for free, just below.
