Suffolk Theater presents “Start Making Sense” and The Ocean Avenue Stompers Horns for an evening of the music of Talking Heads, David Byrne and more on Friday, March 29, at 8 p.m.
If David Byrne is one of the geniuses of modern times, then “Start Making Sense” is a tribute to genius. The musicians in this seven to 10 piece Talking Heads tribute band take pride in faithfully recreating the music of Talking Heads’ entire career alongside David Byrne’s solo material and more surprises. Together, they bring much of the Heads unique live show to the stage, with front man Jon Braun as a spot-on David Byrne, giving audiences a “once in a lifetime” experience. The show also boasts a full horn section featuring The Ocean Avenue Stompers Horns — a NOLA influenced brass band with the sounds of Jersey Shore rock ’n’ roll, Philly soul, and New York City’s finest.
Tickets are $35 to $59 at thesuffolk.org. Suffolk Theater is at 118 East Main Street in Riverhead.
