David Byrne showing up to Tiny Desk with more than a dozen musicians feels like peak Byrne energy; chaotic, joyful, and somehow perfectly organised. Dressed in matching electric-blue suits and armed with compact, marching-band-style instruments, the whole crew squeezes behind NPR’s famously tiny desk to pull off a stripped-down set inspired by Byrne’s Who Is the Sky? tour. They roll through new tracks like Everybody Laughs and Don’t Be Like That, then slip into Talking Heads classics, a dreamy (Nothing But) Flowers and a downright explosive Life During Wartime. It’s the kind of performance that shouldn’t fit in that 10x11-foot space, yet magically does, because David Byrne bends the universe that way. After the set, he casually hops on a rental bike and rides off into a perfect fall afternoon, as if that’s not the most David Byrne thing ever. The internet is rad!
