British pop influence has recurred across decades in waves, with legacy and new U.K. acts continuing to impact global music scenes in 2025.
For Byrne's first album since his hugely acclaimed American Utopia tour and the subsequent Spike Lee-directed film he's working with an orchestra, as well as St Vincent and Paramore singer Hayley Williams, among others. The two tracks released so far, She Explains Things To Me and Everybody Laughs, have proved to be sweetly sunny and driven by acoustic guitar. The accompanying tour due to reach Europe next year will apparently blend visual art, storytelling and music into one compelling live performance.
