TV On The Radio's David Andrew Sitek will release his debut album, Maximum Balloon, on August 31st via DGC/Interscope Records. Sitek is the guitarist, multi-instrumentalist and producer for TV On The Radio, as well as such critically-acclaimed and popular bands like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Liars and Scarlett Johansson's album of Tom Waits covers.
Sitek recruited some of his favorite singers to co-write and lend vocals to his songs: artists he's helped produce over the last 8 years as well as those he met as one of the originators of the formative New York-based indie-rock scene. Those artists include Karen O, the spectacular front-woman of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs; stylish rap wordsmith Theophilus London; old friend Katrina Ford from the Baltimore-based band, Celebration; the torchlight talent of New York's Holly Miranda; legendary Talking Heads frontman David Byrne; Brooklyn based Aku from Dragons of Zynth, Shivaree vocalist Ambrosia Parsely; and, of course, TV On The Radio bandmates Tunde Adebimpe and Kyp Malone.
The first single, "Groove Me" (feat. Theophilus London), is available at iTunes and other digital outlets now. Learn more - here
