We Might Be Giants, Too! is a They Might Be Giants tribute album. It was the brain child of various members of the USENET newsgroup alt.music.tmbg. The album was spearheaded, championed and compiled by Jeremy Moskowitz; CD packaging, design and and layout were done by Mike Lebovitz, and illustrations were done by Kyle Carrozza. Distribution was headed up by Matt Ondrey. A bunch of the bands/musicians were part of the now-defunct independent Superpickle Music Arts label. The compilation's name comes from the song "I Might Be Giant, Too", which was left as a message on Dial-A-Song in the late 1980s.

Trivia
- The cover artwork for this tribute album visually references the TMBG songs "Pencil Rain", "Birds Fly", "Snowball In Hell", "Boat Of Car", and "Youth Culture Killed My Dog". Ironically, none of these songs are covered on the album.
