History
Giants are an instrumental band originally from Iowa that has members currently spread out across the map. Well known for their lush, dynamic sound and awkward time between songs, Giants played a handful of shows in the area and a short tour that was cut short when their beloved "Ghost Yogurt" the old A is Jump/ Jane Wilson's Daycare van, called Detroit it's final resting place. After the tour, a final show was played, and the members of Giants spread out throughout the midwest to focus on various educational endeavors. However, in January of 2007, the band was signed to Medical Abuse Records and their debut full length album is expected to be released on that label in the spring of 2007.
