We’ve known that a collaboration between David Byrne and St. Vincent has been in the works, and today they shared not only details about their upcoming collaborative album, Love This Giant, but the record’s opening track, “Who,” and tour dates as well.
From the sounds of the first single, the art-pop geniuses have melded together each other’s signature sounds, creating a schizophrenic, jittery soundscape held together by off-kilter harmonies and idiosyncratic horn arrangements. The album features guest appearances by Antibalas, the Dap-Kings and John Congleton and is slated for a September 11 release via 4AD/Todo Mundo.
