BAC: Big Suit – A Tribute to Talking Heads

October 26, 2019 @ 8:00 pm

Big Suit – A Tribute to Talking Heads

Saturday | October 26 at 8PM

BiG SUiT is a collective of nine musicians drawn to the cerebral adventures, infectious rhythms, and pioneering music known to the world as Talking Heads. BIG SUiT began when a Chicago-area producer reached out to Deacon Blues founder Steve Kikoen with a request to form a Tribute to Talking Heads.

BiG SUiT is heavily inspired by the film Stop Making Sense, and has recreated it within a live stage format. Additionally, the SUiTS incorporate many of the infectious, non-film Heads songs into their repertoire as well. Frontman Jason Krause brings an astonishing take on David Byrne. From the eye-catching and flamboyant routines of dancer/singers Jennifer Hall & Jessica Hornsten to the incredible percussion and afro-celt rhythm section of Phil Brines, Janis Wallin, and Megan Thomas, this Tribute to Talking Heads is the real deal. Rounding out the personnel are Paul Mutzabaugh & Cash Michaels on keyboards; with all of the “SUiTS” under the direction of Steve Kikoen, guitarist for BiG SUiT and founder/guitarist/singer of Deacon Blues. This funk–rock ensemble of stellar musicians offers up a truly inspirational, Once In A Lifetime connection.
