David Byrne is a name synonymous with innovation and creativity in music – but he’s also more than a little controversial.
As the eccentric frontman of Talking Heads, Byrne redefined the boundaries of art rock, crafting a body of work that many believe to be one of the most impactful in music history.
However, behind beloved tracks like Burning Down the House and the existential musings of Once in a Lifetime lays a story of explosive conflict in the band.
Talking Heads emerged from the same New York punk scene that birthed icons like The Ramones and Blondie. Yet, from the outset, Byrne’s vision for the band was profoundly unorthodox.
