David Byrne announces UK and Irish arena dates

David Byrne released his new album ‘American Utopia’ at the start of the year, and he’s now announced that he’s set to take the record on a huge UK and Irish arena tour later in the year.

Running through October and into the first week of November, the tour includes a show at London’s O2 Arena, and will see support coming from Benjamin Clementine.

“I was introduced to Benjamin Clementine’s music through a friend. I was floored!,” the Talking Heads frontman said of the billing. “I asked him to perform in the 2015 Meltdown Festival I curated in London and am honored to have him join me at various stops along the American Utopia Tour!”
