They Might Be Giants Tour

07/09/2010
. They Might Be Giants have announced their summer and fall tour plans. They'll kick off on the west coast this August with a stop at the Stern Grove Festival and the East Coast in the Fall.

In addition to a performance at New York City's Town Hall, the band is scheduled to play both days of this year's Life is good Festival in the Boston area alongside three stages of headliners, including Grace Potter & The Nocturnals, OK Go, Ben Harper & Relentless7 and many more.

All proceeds go to benefit The Life is good Kids Foundation whose mission is to provide support to kids who face life-threatening conditions such as the trauma of violence, poverty and loss.

The Giants' kids album, Here Comes Science, released in September 2009, has received praise across the board for its unique and exciting fusion of rock, education and humor. Boing Boing described the album as "top-notch pop music with humor that's aimed at both kids and adults" and called the album "better than great. Perfect."
