Jam meets ’80s avant garde pop when the hottest bands on the jamband scene pay tribute to the Talking Heads. David Byrne and company set the standard in music with sophisticated hook-laden songs that merged angular 70s punk with funk and world music rhythms. With eleven albums, a handful of hit singles and an oversized suit, the Talking Heads were the original art-punkers whose songs defined the ’80s.
You’ll be amazed at these high-energy versions of Talking Heads classics like “Psycho Killer” and “Burning Down the House” which soar to new heights in the hands of these up and coming bands including UMPHREY’S MCGEE, ROBERT WALTER’S 20TH CONGRESS, DARK STAR ORCHESTRA and GARAJ MAHAL. Featuring deep grooves and dynamic improvisations, Up All Night: Jammin’ to the Talking Heads is a testament to the enduring legacy of the greatest band of the ‘Me’ Decade.
