David Byrne
David Byrne has been called “perhaps the single greatest influence on the current generation of indie rockers." In addition to leading the influential band The Talking Heads, he founded label Luaka Bop, which helped bring a number of world music acts to a wider pop audience. He joins us to talk about creativity, copyright, and the series he's programmed for Carnegie Hall, including a song cycle about former First Lady of the Philippines, Imelda Marcos.
David Byrne presents Here Lies Love at Carnegie Hall on February 3rd at 8PM
