They Might Be Giants
ResumeAlt-rock pioneers “They Might Be Giants” are rocking again. They’ll be with us.

Back when Gun n’ Roses and Twisted Sister were big, two young guys with coke bottle glasses, dorky hair cuts, and an accordion walked on stage, turned on a drum machine, and made alt-rock.
“They Might Be Giants” was a great name that became a great, fresh player in the alternative rock universe. The forever young grand-daddies of Green Day and a lot more. They’re back.
This hour On Point: “They Might Be Giants”.
