Talking Heads were an American rock band formed in New York City in 1975. It consisted of vocalist-guitarist David Byrne, drummer Chris Frantz, bassist Tina Weymouth and guitarist-keyboardist Jerry Harrison. Described as “one of the most critically acclaimed groups of the ’80s,” Talking Heads helped to pioneer new wave music by combining elements of punk, art rock, funk, and world music with “an anxious yet clean-cut image”; they have been called “a properly postmodernist band”.

“Road to Nowhere” is a song by the American band Talking Heads from their 1985 album Little Creatures. The song was written by David Byrne and released as a single in 1985. It reached No. 25 on the US Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart and entered the top 10 in eight other countries. It appeared on Best of Talking Heads, Sand in the Vaseline: Popular Favorites, the Once in a Lifetime box set and the Brick box set.
