Start Making Sense

Direct from the USA, Start Making Sense are the ultimate tribute to the legendary new-wave art punk pioneers, Talking Heads! They perform all the classic hits like Once in a Lifetime, This Must Be the Place, Road to Nowhere, Psycho Killer, Burning Down the House, And She Was, Take Me to the River and more!

Seeing Start Making Sense is like stepping into a time machine back to the golden age of MTV. They don’t just play the songs, they bring the full spectacle of a classic Talking Heads show to life – all the iconic choreographed dance moves, the wild theatrics, and every offbeat David Byrne tic and quirk. Yes, including the Big Suit!

If you love Talking Heads and never got the chance to see them live, Start Making Sense is as close as you’re likely to get… it’s a once in a lifetime experience.
