The initial Turkuaz, Harrison & Belew tour came about as a 40th-anniversary celebration of Talking Heads 1980 record, Remain in Light, which peaked at 19 on the Billboard Top 200 upon release. The ensemble was set to play a handful of dates over the summer of 2020, until COVID-19 swiftly derailed all live music for the foreseeable future. We had always planned on doing a little bit of Turkuaz material in the upcoming Remain in Light tour with Adrian Belew and Jerry Harrison, shares Turkuaz frontman, Dave Brandwein.
