The king of avant-pop released his first record since 2018 last week and wrapped up the first leg of his Who Is The Sky tour, which shares a name with the album. Now, another run of North American dates will bring him to Phoenix on April 21 at the Arizona Financial Theatre.

David Byrne has been creating music since the early 1970s and became well-known as the lead singer of the new wave band Talking Heads, which was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. He has been prolific as a solo artist and has garnered a slew of awards, including an Oscar and a Golden Globe. The new record includes the single “T Shirt,” co-produced by Brian Eno, that mixes electronica and commentary on politics.

His current live show promises the lively multimedia experience he is renowned for delivering. Tickets for the new dates go on sale on Friday, December 12. Fans can sign up for the artist presale here, beginning at 10:00 a.m. EST on Tuesday, December 9.

VIP packages will be available and diverse, including premium tickets, a tour of the stage, and an on-stage photo opportunity. Contents vary per package.
