Lineup and format may be subject to change.

Tune in for a live discussion with Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club drummer and author Chris Frantz and Sunflower Bean’s Julia Cumming on Instagram (@summerstage)!
Both the backbone of Talking Heads’ angular art rock and mastermind of Tom Tom Club’s post-punk hip-hop disco vibes—in both cases, alongside his wife Tina Weymouth—Chris Frantz played a significant role in reshaping what rock music could sound like in the 70s and 80s. His new book “Remain in Love” dishes on Talking Heads’ enigmatic frontman David Byrne, touring Europe with the Ramones, and witnessing the chronic sexism Weymouth endured. For SummerStage Anywhere’s Culture Talks, he joins Sunflower Bean’s bassist and lead vocalist Julia Cumming, a model for the likes of H&M, Diesel, and Yves Saint Laurent who happens to front one of the 2010s most exciting psychedelic post-punk bands of the 2010s.
