Why see In Conversation with David Byrne?
Sleeping Beauties
Musician, writer, visual artist and Talking Heads co-founder & frontman David Byrne appears live for a one-off intimate conversation discussing his new book, Sleeping Beauties. A reflection on why great ideas can fall by the wayside and how they are brought back to life, the book serves as a primer on creativity from one of the most ambitious and multifaceted creators of our time. Don't miss this rare chance to hear from the man himself, in-person!
A leader of the New Wave scene in the late '70s and early '80s, David Byrne has enjoyed enduring success, first with Talking Heads and then as a solo artist, filmmaker, photographer, activist, and writer. A friend of David Bowie and collaborator with Brian Eno (who featured on American Utopia's lead single "Everybody's Coming to My House"), his perpetual zeal for creating has cemented him as a true auteur an icon of the modern age.
