They Might Be Giants (TMBG) é o nome de uma banda de rock. Formada em Boston, Estados Unidos criada em 1983,.
Seu nome pode ser traduzido para "Eles podem ser gigantes", que é o nome de um filme com George C. Scott inspirado em um episódio do livro Dom Quixote. Seu fiel servo lhe questiona porque atacar os moinhos com sua lança, ao que Dom Quixote retruca, "Porque eles podem ser gigantes".
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
