St. Vincent and David Byrne collaboration PDF E-mail
Monday, 07 May 2012 08:37

Annie Clark, otherwise know as St Vincent, has spoken about her forthcoming collaborative album with David Byrne. She told that the pair wrote 13 songs together, but they still haven't decided on how many will be included on the final album. She also said that the record does not yet have a title. When asked if she was starstruck when she first met Byrne, Clarke responded: 'Obviously!' adding that the two bonded over a love of 'outsider art'. The collaboration came about when Clark and Byrne met each other in May 2009 at a Bjork/Dirty Projectors charity show and were approached about working on a similar project.

After agreeing to the idea, the pair reconvened in a New York studio to begin working on the album. As they began writing material, it quickly became apparent that there was a creative chemistry between them both. Clark plans to release the new material in the autumn, before heading out on a tour to support the album with David Byrne.
