They Might Be Giants

On August 22, 2019, They Might Be Giants delivered an electrifying performance at The Stone Pony Summer Stage in Asbury Park, NJ, while opening for Squeeze. At this point in their career, TMBG had just been gaining momentum with their 2018 album, "I Like Fun," which showcased their signature blend of quirky pop and introspective lyrics. Interestingly, this live recording captures not just their high-energy stage presence but also the camaraderie between the band and the audience, reminding us why they’ve remained a beloved staple in alternative music. The choice of "Istanbul" as a set closer is particularly striking, as it highlights the band's knack for reinvention, turning a classic tune into a fresh and exuberant performance that resonates with fans both new and old.
