Talking Heads: Formed in New York City in 1975, Talking Heads combined new wave, art rock, funk, and world music into a unique, cerebral sound. Fronted by David Byrne’s distinctive voice and neurotic stage presence, they explored themes of alienation, technology, and modern life. Albums like Remain in Light and Speaking in Tongues featured hits such as "Once in a Lifetime," "Burning Down the House," and "Road to Nowhere." Their innovative use of rhythm, polyrhythms, and African influences expanded rock’s boundaries. Their 1984 concert film Stop Making Sense is considered one of the greatest live performances ever. The band disbanded in 1991, but their influence endures in indie, electronic, and alternative music. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.
