David Byrne has announced an extensive tour in support of his forthcoming solo record, American Utopia. He will perform songs from the new album, due March 9, as well as classics from his solo career and his days with Talking Heads.

David Byrne has announced an extensive world tour in support of his forthcoming solo record, American Utopia. Byrne will perform songs from the new album, which is out March 9 via Todomundo/Nonesuch Records, as well as classics from his solo career and his days with Talking Heads. A twelve-piece band will also join Byrne on stage for a choreographed concert that he has called “the most ambitious show I’ve done since the shows that were filmed for Stop Making Sense.”
Following a run of sold-out dates in the Northeast US in March, Byrne will head to South America, followed by an extensive North American tour including both headline concerts and festival sets. From there, he heads to the UK and Europe, before returning to North America in August. Additionally, Byrne will bring his Reasons To Be Cheerful series of free talks to several European cities this month. See below for all of the currently scheduled dates; for all the latest, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.
American Utopia is currently available for pre-order on iTunes and in the Nonesuch Store, which include an instant download of album track "Everybody's Coming To My House," as well as an exclusive print facsimile of an early handwritten lyric sheet to the song.
