On Jan. 10, A24 teased a “Stop Making Sense” tribute album set for release later this year, with Paramore kicking things off with a cover of “Burning Down the House.” The album will feature 15 other yet-to-be-announced artists contributing Talking Heads covers, recreating the setlist of the “Stop Making Sense” tour. “Stop Making Sense,” widely considered one of the greatest concert films of all time, was directed by Jonathan Demme and stars Talking Heads members David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz and Jerry Harrison along with Bernie Worrell, Alex Weir, Steve Scales, Lynn Mabry and Ednah Holt.
