THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS

We can't be silent, because they might be giants. And what are we going to do unless they are?

As you know, we are big TMBG fans here. The band is on fire lately with their Australian tour (and coming back to the USA this month) in support of their latest studio album, Nanobots.

Also, fans may want to record Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on May 24th for TMBG.

OF MONTREAL

Have you heard of NPR Tiny Desk Concert? This is basically a live performance in an office/desk area. Check out of Montreal's live performance at npr.org as they play three songs: "Feminine Effects", "Imbecile Rages", and "Amphibian Days".

Of Montreal is currently in the middle of their national tour in support of 2012's Paralytic Stalks (but don't be surprised to hear new songs from their upcoming Lousy With Sylvianbriar album). They will be arriving in Minneapolis tomorrow, May 15th.
