They Might Be Giants’ latest record for grown-ups, Nanobots, will come out March 5 on Idlewild Recordings. Recorded at the studio of the group’s longtime pal and producer Patrick Dillett, Nanobots is They Might Be Giants’ sixteenth album. Its first single, the appropriately jangly “Call You Mom,” premiered today on Rolling Stone’s site.
The geeked-out duo will be playing three sold-out shows at Brooklyn's Music Hall Of Williamsburg around New Year’s Eve, and then will be touring many cities in the rest of the country starting in late February. A full list of dates is below.
