    "bio_short": "One of the most important, influential and enduring <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/tag/new%20wave\" class=\"bbcode_tag\" rel=\"tag\">new wave</a> bands, Talking Heads regularly modified their sound, bringing in elements of <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/tag/punk\" class=\"bbcode_tag\" rel=\"tag\">punk</a>, <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/tag/pop\" class=\"bbcode_tag\" rel=\"tag\">pop</a>, <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/tag/african\" class=\"bbcode_tag\" rel=\"tag\">african</a> rhythms and <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/tag/funk\" class=\"bbcode_tag\" rel=\"tag\">funk</a> among others to add to their original jerky stripped-down art-punk stylings.  Talking Heads first appeared on the New York music scene as a trio in 1974 essentially as art-punks. The band consisted of <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/music/David+Byrne\" class=\"bbcode_artist\">David Byrne</a>, <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/music/Chris+Frantz\" class=\"bbcode_artist\">Chris Frantz</a>, and <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/music/Tina+Weymouth\" class=\"bbcode_artist\">Tina Weymouth</a>. By 1975, Talking Heads recorded a demo album for CBS records and landed a gig opening for the <a href=\"http://www.last.fm/music/Ramones\" class=\"bbcode_artist\">Ramones</a> at the legendary CBGB club in their native New York City.",
