Why Does the Sun Shine? by They Might Be Giants

by Scott Beale on September 15, 2009 · 2 comments

Hine Mizushima created a wonderful stop-motion animated music video for “Why Does the Sun Shine?” by They Might Be Giants, from their new children’s album and DVD “Here Comes Science”.

TMBG are currently on tour and are playing at the Fillmore in San Francisco on November 13th.

Oh and at long last theymightbegiants.com has launched a new website design and tmbg.com now redirects to the main site, where previously they had two websites.

UPDATE: Wired’s Underwire recently did an interview with TMBG’s John Flansburgh.

Unfortunately SF does not appear to have a “Family show” scheduled for when TMBG visits town :( Don’t think my kiddo is quite ready for the full blown rock show yet.
