The quirky experimental pop band They Might Be Giants released their fifteenth studio album Join Us in July, which is also the band's first album that's not been a children's album since 2007's The Else. The band are touring through the fall and winter supporting it and are coming back to Raleigh.

They'll play the Lincoln Theatre on Wednesday, February 15. Tickets are on sale now via etix for $22.

Check out the music video for the opening track from Join Us, "Can't Keep Johnny Down," below. It stars actor Rip Torn, who you may know as Don Geiss 30 Rock, Chief Zed in Men in Black or one of his many other roles.
