Broadway: You Can Stream David Byrne’s Extraordinary “American Utopia” Now on Spotify

Share

The CD isn’t out yet, but you can stream David Byrne’s extraordinary Broadway production, “American Utopia,” right now on Spotify. I haven’t stopped thinking about this remarkable show. What a treat that we can stream the music. But you have to see it in person, with the striking choreography. Jonathan Demme directed the documentary, “Stop Making Sense,” and he’s probably kvelling from heaven.
