Fans closely attuned to this Talking Heads founder’s Instagram may have caught sight of plastic bird masks, piles of cartoonish buttons, and synchronized biking clips in recent months. All clues point to an elaborately performative, eccentrically outfitted stage production for this avant-garde artist’s upcoming tour. Who Is the Sky? is just the latest colorful installation in David Byrne’s lavish catalog of artistic endeavors, a solo album of straightforward list-making and question asking accompanied playfully by New York’s Ghost Train Orchestra. Like everything Byrne touches, this live performance is sure to be full of vibrant surprises. – Caroline Drew
