David Byrne announces new album 'Who Is the Sky?' with lead single 'Everybody Laughs'
David Byrne, the iconic Talking Heads frontman, has unveiled his highly anticipated new album, Who Is the Sky?, his first solo release in seven years. The album, due out on September 5 via Matador Records, is a reflection of Byrne's distinct creative voice. Who Is the Sky? follows his 2018 critically acclaimed album American Utopia, which transformed into a Broadway musical and later an HBO concert film. The new record promises to deliver more of Byrne's innovative and thought-provoking sound, blending personal reflections with broader societal observations. The lead single, 'Everybody Laughs,' sets the tone for the album. It comes with an official music video directed by Gabriel Barcia-Colombo, and captures Byrne's unique perspective on life. In the song, Byrne explores the shared human experience of joy and sorrow, remarking, 'Everybody lives, dies, laughs, cries, sleeps and stares at the ceiling.' Byrne's choice of the word "everybody" is intentional, offering a wide-angle lens on life in New York City while retaining an intimate, personal touch. The song contrasts themes of negativity with an uplifting musical groove, highlighted by a powerful collaboration with St. Vincent, who joins Byrne for some dynamic vocal exchanges. The album's production features contributions from a variety of notable artists, including St. Vincent, Paramore's Hayley Williams, and The Smile drummer Tom Skinner. A significant part of Who Is the Sky?'s sound comes from the arrangements crafted by the Ghost Train Orchestra, a New York-based chamber ensemble known for their eclectic approach to music. In support of the album, Byrne has also announced an extensive world tour set to kick off in North America in September 2025. The tour will take him across the United States and Canada, with dates in Europe and Australasia following in 2026. A live band consisting of 13 musicians, singers, and dancers—many of whom were part of Byrne's American Utopia ensemble—will accompany him on the road, ensuring a dynamic and engaging performance. This highly anticipated tour is expected to showcase the intricate sounds of Who Is the Sky?, with all performers being mobile throughout the set, further enhancing the immersive experience. Byrne's Who Is the Sky? promises to be a landmark release in his career, blending his signature eclecticism with deep personal reflections. Fans can expect a thought-provoking journey both on record and live.

Microsoft on Sunday unveiled its first Xbox-branded handheld gaming devices, touting them as a way to play its vast library of titles anywhere, as reported by AFP. Two ROG Xbox Ally models made in a partnership with Taiwan-based ASUS will be available by the year-end holiday season, Xbox president Sarah Bond said during an online event showcasing games heading for the platform. "The Xbox Ally is an Xbox you can hold in your hands, bringing together the power of Xbox and the freedom of Windows," Bond said. "On this Xbox, you can play games across your entire library, including all the Windows PC game stores from Xbox and to Steam, GOG (Good Old Games platform) and Ubisoft Connect." The peek at Xbox Ally came just days after the release of Nintendo's Switch 2, the handheld console that could score record early sales for the Japanese Super Mario creator. The Nintendo device, which features a bigger screen and more processing power, is an upgrade to the Switch that became a global phenomenon with hit games such as "Animal Crossing." Microsoft promised to disclose pricing and release date details for Xbox Ally in the coming months. Both Xbox handhelds appeared similar to Microsoft console controllers in terms of buttons, toggles and grips but looked elongated to provide room for center screens. "When you power on your Xbox Ally, you'll boot directly into the Xbox full screen experience, a new feature optimized specifically for handheld gaming," Microsoft said in a release. "The Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X are perfect for players looking to take an approachable gaming experience with you during travels – – whether it's between airports, or between the comfiest chairs in the living room."
