The Current presents
FOUR NIGHTS WITH
THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS
The Bigger Show Tour
Only 2026 area appearances!
2 very different shows. 2 “Evening with” performances.
8-piece band. 3 horns. 2 sets. 0 openers.
Starts early. Gets loud.
Minneapolis. And St. Paul.
Renowned for their infamous live shows, They Might Be Giants has now expanded to an eight-piece band, including a three-piece horn section. Audiences can expect a spontaneous, sprawling, and utterly enthralling musical event unlike any other. Yes, TMBG is in top form and back on the road with a show that is truly ever-evolving. The first set of each night spotlights a different album, while the second set will draw from every era of their career — from the earliest days of Dial-A-Song and the platinum album Flood to their brand new 2026 releases. With all the favorites, remarkable deep cuts, and dazzling musical improvisations, each performance is a distinct celebration of the band’s singular songbook. These shows, along with the stand-alone EP, Eyeball, and all-new album The World Is to Dig, are all testament to the fact that this band will not slow down.
