David Byrne & St. Vincent Release ‘Brass Tactics’ EP For Free

Following on from the release of 2012’s collaborative ‘Love This Giant’ album, David Byrne and St. Vincent have released a new EP of offcuts from the sessions, titled ‘Blind Tactics’.

In the pair’s own words, the EP contains ‘a taste of what to expect’ from a forthcoming North America and European tour.

‘It has one song that didn’t make it on the record (a waltz featuring some lovely glass harmonica), a couple of energized remixes of some of the album tunes and two live tracks of the sort of more familiar material we do in the set,’ the blurb explains.

The ‘Brass Tactics’ EP tracklisting:
‘Cissus’ [previous unreleased album track]
‘I Should Watch TV’ [M. Stine Remix]
‘Lightning’ [Kent Rockafeller Remix]
‘Marrow’ [live]
‘Road To Nowhere’ [live]
