David Byrne & St. Vincent - Who and Weekend in the Dust

David Byrne and St. Vincent have started to ramp up the promotional gears for their upcoming album, Love This Giant. The first single, Who, is available for free download if you give up your email address. I love Who, it sounds a lot like latter day Talking Heads (circa Naked), with Byrne's mournful vocals meshing perfectly with St. Vincent's accompaniment, some punchy horns, rubbery guitar, and thumping, snapping percussion.

You can also listen to a second track, Weekend in the Dust, on the duo's website.

1 “Who”
2 “Weekend In The Dust”
