Info
David Byrne plays Cardiff Castle, Castle St, Cardiff, on 26 July 2026. Scottish-born and raised in the US, Byrne first shaped his voice with Talking Heads in New York’s art-rock and post-punk orbit before opening a solo path where pop experiments meet Afro‑Latin grooves, funk, electronics and chamber textures. From My Life in the Bush of Ghosts and Rei Momo to Grown Backwards and American Utopia, his catalogue blends rhythmic sharpness and clear melodies with a visual sense of movement tailored for the stage and flexible ensembles. Long-running collaborations with Brian Eno and St. Vincent keep feeding a body of work that stays restless yet unmistakable.
Sharing the bill, Anna Calvi brings a guitar-forward sound and a low, dramatic tone that moves between art rock and cinematic pop. After early London shows, her albums Anna Calvi, One Breath and Hunter traced a precise writing style, later echoed in her music for Peaky Blinders. Strange Weather, her 2014 EP of covers with Byrne, hints at a dialogue that connects their worlds without blurring their edges.
