News:  David Byrne, St. Vincent

Stream David Byrne & St. Vincent’s ‘Love This Giant’

By Fernando Scoczynski Filho

Announced back in June, David Byrne & St. Vincent‘s collaborative album Love This Giant always seemed like one to look out for. Described as a pop record “using a brass band rather than the typical rock ensemble,” the project took nearly three years to complete, and can finally be listened to in its entirety.

As Love This Giant is set to be released next week, the record has been made available for streaming, via NPR. Check out the rather unusual LP below:
