They Might Be Giants Come To The Capitol Center 9/10

Notorious for their energized live show, Brooklyn's They Might Be Giants (TMBG), one of alternative rock's most enduring and innovative bands, will perform at Concord's Capitol Center for the Arts on Saturday, September 10th, at 8pm. Tickets start at $26.

The appearance follows up on the release of TMBG new album, Join Us. Impossibly catchy, sometimes strange, and always original the album is a stunning return to form. As the band turns away from the family oriented projects that dominated their output in recent years (and garnered them two GRAMMY nominations and a win) on Join Us we find the band has returned to their singular sensibility that made them an instant phenomenon in the world of alternative rock.

They Might Be Giants unlikely success story started nearly three decades ago with their Dial-A-Song service. High energy, low budget videos broke them into heavy rotation on MTV and the rest would soon become alternative rock history. Along the way the band has become the recipients of two GRAMMYs and a platinum record (1990's Flood). They recorded numerous themes including The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, their GRAMMY-winning theme Malcolm In the Middle and many more. John Flansburgh has also produced Jonathan Coulton's upcoming studio release "Artificial Heart" which features TMBG"s Marty Beller on drums. The Brooklyn-based Coulton will open for TMBG.

Tickets are available now by calling 603-225-1111, online at www.ccanh.com, and at the box office on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Ticket prices: $30 orchestra/mezzanine, $26 balcony.
