They Might Be Giants release new live album “Beast Of Horns”!

Music legends They Might Be Giants have returned with the release of a new live album “Beast of Horns”. Culled from recent touring, this new set of horn-oriented tracks captures the musical glory of TMBG’s expanded live format. Long celebrated for their electrifying shows, here we find the band joined by a virtual murderers row of horn talent with Stan Harrison on sax, Dan Levine on trombone and euphonium, and trumpet superstar Mark Pender (familiar to all from Conan O’Brien’s band). The album boasts 13 tracks including audience favorites “Doctor Worm,” “Museum of Idiots,” “The Darlings of Lumberland.”

TMBG’s Idlewild Recordings will not be releasing Beast of Horns on streaming platforms as a full-length album. Rather it is available on exclusive vinyl record, as a download, and on compact disc available from the TMBG Store and at brick-and-mortar record shops. Music streamers can enjoy a 4-song sampler at the service of their choice.
Also newly available is the 7-inch 45 vinyl featuring “Lazy,” TMBG’s recording of Irving Berlin’s classic 1924 song made in celebration of WNYC’s 100th anniversary as part of the station’sPublic Song Project. The 7-inch is backed with the track “Buckle Down, Winsocki” and is available for purchase here.
The band are also returning to the UK this November 2024 with their ‘An Evening With They Might Be Giants: Flood, BOOK and Beyond’ UK tour. Nine of the twelve dates across the country have already sold out and tickets are going fast for the remaining 3rd of November Shepherds Bush Empire London date and Southampton and Belfast shows, so don’t wait to book!
The shows will include two sets which span early favourites to songs from their new, Grammy-nominated album ‘BOOK’. TMBG’s superlative live band has now expanded to eight, with a three-piece horn section including trumpet virtuoso Mark Pender from the Conan show. This once-in-a-lifetime show is guaranteed to delight!

HOTEL MIRA INVITE YOU TO THEIR ‘PITY PARTY’ – IF YOU CAN HANDLE IT

Get ready to lose yourself in the exhilarating highs and crushing lows of ‘Pity Party’, the latest album from Canadian alt-rock powerhouse HOTEL MIRA. Out March 14, this dynamic record perfectly captures the euphoria of reckless indulgence (party) and the sobering reality of self-destruction (pity).
Led by charismatic frontman Charlie Kerr, alongside Clark Grieve (guitar), Mike Noble (bass), and Cole George (drums), HOTEL MIRA has built a reputation for delivering electrifying performances and razor-sharp lyricism. With tracks that dance between Iggy Pop-style hedonism and raw, introspective storytelling, ‘Pity Party’ is an emotional rollercoaster that refuses to slow down.
Coming off extensive tours with Rare Americans and rock legends like Our Lady Peace, the band has proven they’re a force to be reckoned with. Whether you’re looking for an anthem to fuel your wildest nights (‘America’s Favourite Pastime’, ‘Runner’) or a gut-punch of reflection (‘There Goes The Neighbourhood’, ‘Back to the Bedroom’), this album delivers in every way.
Brace yourself – ‘Pity Party’ is the kind of celebration you’ll never forget, and possibly never recover from.
