Saoirse Ronan is set to appear in a new music video for Talking Heads' ‘Psycho Killer’, marking the 50th anniversary of the band’s first gig in New York’s CBGBs. It will premiere today, June 5, at 5pm.

Earlier this week, Talking Heads shared a post on social media including ‘Psycho Killer’ and today’s date. In another post made on June 3, the band shared a clip of Ronan brushing her teeth with the iconic track playing in the background.

The new video will see the Oscar-nominated actress acting out in a series of domestic and work locations, and is directed by Mike Mills, best known for his previous work with The Divine Comedy and Moby.

‘Psycho Killer’ was originally released in 1977 and was the first song that David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz and Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads wrote together.

Talking Heads last performed together in 1984 and officially disbanded in 1991.
