David Byrne is one of the most creative all-around artists alive. In the early '70s, David formed the 'Talking Heads', which went on to become one of the most influential groups in music. They were anti-corporate, experimental and helped revolutionize music videos. In 2002, they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. David's been honoured by the Grammy's, Golden Globes and has even won an Oscar for 'The Last Emperor' soundtrack. He's also an accomplished visual artist - turning an entire building into a giant musical instrument and designing a series of bike racks for New York City. These days, he's teamed up again with music whiz Brian Eno. They've put out a new album together called 'Everything That Happens Will Happen Today' Brian did the music, David the lyrics and voice. They're calling it gospel-folk-electronic.
