David Byrne returns with his highly anticipated new album *Who Is the Sky?*, his first full-length release since the critically acclaimed *American Utopia*. Produced by Grammy-winning producer Kid Harpoon (Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus), the album features 12 vibrant songs arranged by the New York-based chamber ensemble Ghost Train Orchestra. Inspired by their tribute to Moondog and a spontaneous onstage collaboration, Byrne embraced the ensemble’s rich instrumentation—featuring strings, winds, brass, percussion, guitar, and bass—to create a sonically dynamic and emotionally resonant work. Guest appearances include St. Vincent, Hayley Williams of Paramore, The Smile’s Tom Skinner, and American Utopia percussionist Mauro Refosco. The album is led by the infectious single "Everybody Laughs," a track that balances introspective themes with an uplifting groove, embodying Byrne’s ability to hold emotional opposites in harmony.
