Eno to produce Coldplay

He commented that bands normally work with him when they are exploring new directions with their music.

When asked about the current state of the Music Industry, Eno said it was ‘terrific and frightening’ and talked about how easy it has become to make and distribute music. The downside of that being that there is less attention afforded to any individual piece.

He said he thought that music was in a ‘digestive and retrospective’ period with alot of guitar bands sounding like Talking Heads. He was surprised that David Byrne’s influence on music has stayed dormant for so long. He finished the interview by saying that the new Coldplay album will sound nothing like Talking Heads!

Coldplay will debut new material on their shows in South America later in the month.
The dates are as follows:

February 2007

14+15+16 Santiago Espacio Riesco
20+21+22 Buenos Aires Gran Rex
26+27+28 Sao Paolo Via

March 2007

03 Mexico City National Auditorium
