New York, NY (Top40 Charts) "Catch them if you can. Their live shows always deliver." - USA Today
"Oh my god,
They Might Be Giants is underrated. That's the best band of all time. Better than the Stones, better than the Beatles, better than Oasis, and better than Crosby,
Stills and Nash." - Open Mike Eagle, Pitchfork
"Perfect pop music can come from anywhere and can go anywhere.
They Might Be Giants have demonstrated this for a quarter century." - The New Yorker
35-years deep, Brooklyn's freewheeling local heroes
They Might Be Giants remain rock's most original perpetual-motion machine; creating startling new music and performing shows packed with spontaneity and undeniable joy across the globe. Now they are bringing a brand new show, "An Evening with They Might Be Giants" featuring two big sets to
Europe and beyond. The show includes all-time favorites, along with an ever-shifting rotation of fresh rarities spanning their epic career, and spur-of-the-moment improvisations that will delight even their exhausted road crew. And now for the first time beyond NYC, they're joined on tour with show-stopping trumpet genius Curt Ramm (Nile Rogers, Bruce Springsteen).
Today the band shares a new single via Dial-A-Song titled "The Communists Have the Music" which is an instant TMBG classic with the melodic hooks the band is renowned for. Listen to it twice and the song will play on in your head for days. A full production video is in the works, with the animation team lead by
David Plunkert (the award-winning illustrator of the notorious New Yorker Trump/KKK sailboat cover). The track will be available digitally everywhere 21st September, backed with "I've Been Seeing Things".
This year alone the band released their 20th full-length album I Like Fun to rave reviews, played 50 US cities demolishing stages to mostly sold out rooms, was nominated for a Tony award for their song "I'm Not A Loser", posted 20 additional songs on their Dial-A-Song service, was the featured guest on WTF with Marc Maron, and performed on CONAN (+ special web-exclusive)!
And now they are returning to Europe!
