Watch David Byrne Join Doug Hream Blunt In Brooklyn

Last year, David Byrne released My Name Is, a compilation of songs by San Francisco funk outsider Doug Hream Blunt, on his Luaka Bop label. Blunt opened last night’s Red Bull Sound Select NY show at Brooklyn’s Baby’s All Right, backed by teenage band Clover & The Clockworks, Joakim, the Rapture’s Luke Jenner, and several musicians from Craiglist. As BrooklynVegan reports, Byrne himself took the stage near the end of the set to join in on a performance of Blunt’s “Big Top.” Watch some footage below.

Did NOT expect to find myself 20 feet from my musical hero today. #davidbyrne #alittlefreakedout
