Turkuaz just released a pro-shot live cut from their performance of a rare David Byrne song, "Big Business," into their song "Murder Face" from 2015's record, Digitonium. It just premiered on YouTube: https://youtu.be/H0j1hJYh_WU
Of the cover choice, Turkuaz frontman Dave Brandwein shares, “Taylor and I discovered this obscure song in the outtakes of our favorite film, Stop Making Sense (Talking Heads) year’s ago. We never understood why it got cut from the movie, but all the more reason to play it. We decided to mash it up with our song "Murder Face," and we think it’s a match made in heaven! (or hell??).”
This is the first video to be released as part of a coming series with other videos from the same Higher Ground performance to be share on Thursday 6/20, Tuesday 6/25 and Thursday 6/27.
Turkuaz heads back out on to the road this weekend with performances at The Railyard in Santa Fe, NM and a return to the historic Colorado venue, Red Rocks Ampitheatre, this weekend. A list of upcoming dates can be found below:
