35-years deep, Brooklyns 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.

 TMBGs brand new show features two big sets including all-time favourites, 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. The band recently wrapped up a thrilling run of European dates where they played to ecstatic sold-out crowds, and now theyre bringing their unique sensibility to stages across Australia.

Sydney and Melbourne fans are in for double-headers, with the band promising two unique nights of musicone pitting their 80s output against the 2010s, and the second their 90s efforts vs. the 00s.

Recently, They Might Be Giants released a new Dial-A-Song video The Communists Have the Music, created with the animation team lead byDavid Plunkert, the award-winning illustrator of the notorious The New Yorker Trump/KKK sailboat cover. The track 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.
