THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS' SUNDAY STAND IN WILLIAMSBURG BROOKLYN

After our January Music Hall show sold out instantly, we got the idea to play the last Sunday of every month in 2015! Each show is a different set, drawing on our illustrious 30-year career. The shows start relatively early, and it's "An Evening with..." so getting to school or work the next morning shouldn't be a total drag. The next four months' shows each feature a different theme -- all the favorites, as well as BRAND NEW SONGS from the Dial-A-Song project.

JANUARY
Sunday 1/25 is SOLD OUT

FEBRUARY
Sunday 2/22 - Songs from the First Album

Tickets Available Here

This show focuses on the band's landmark debut album, often referred to as "The Pink Album." It introduced the classics "Put Your Hand Inside the Puppet Head" and "Don't Let's Start" and established the band as innovators at the forefront of the alternative rock scene.

In 2013, They Might Be Giants performed their first album live to a sold-out house at Royce Hall in Los Angeles, and much of that legendary performance was captured in the First Album Live recording which the band has posted as a free download on their website. With over 40,000 downloads to date, the recording has sparked much new interest in this most startling of debuts.

MARCH
Sunday 3/29 - Songs from Flood

Tickets Available Here

This show will focus on the band's legendary Flood album. The RIAA-certified platinum-seller introduced the songs "Birdhouse In Your Soul" and the band's singular cover of the Four Lads' "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)."

APRIL
Sunday 4/26 - A Dial-A-Song Celebration, A Record Release Party

Tickets Available Here

They Might Be Giants will be performing songs from their brand new album, which will have just been released. The album will contain a number of songs featured on their Dial-A-Song postings, and a bunch more.

MAY
Sunday 5/31 - Songs from The Else

Tickets Available Here

This show will focus on the band's exceptional 2007 release The Else. This album was celebrated as a return to form, with a fully rocking sound that finally captured the power of the group's live lineup. The Else was recorded in a collaboration with producers The Dust Bros. (Beck, Beastie Boys, Hanson) and producer / engineer Pat Dillett (David Bryne & St. Vincent, Mary J. Blige, My Brightest Diamond).
