As A24 Music kicks off their Talking Heads tribute album, Everyone’s Getting Involved: A Tribute to Talking Heads’ Stop Making Sense, Paramore has unveiled their cover of “Burning Down The House.” This tribute album, an homage to the Talking Heads’ legacy, shares its namesake with Jonathan Demme’s concert film and the accompanying 1984 album, both capturing the allure of the band’s live performances at Hollywood’s Pantages Theatre over four nights in the winter of 1983. Paramore’s cover is just the first glimpse into the talent featured on Everyone’s Getting Involved. The tribute album boasts contributions from the likes of Blondshell,… Read more »
