  Red-giant stars are proving to be an incredible source of information for
testing models of stellar evolution, as asteroseismology has opened up a window
into their interiors. Such insights are a direct result of the unprecedented
data from space missions CoRoT and Kepler as well as recent theoretical
advances. Eclipsing binaries are also fundamental astrophysical objects, and
when coupled with asteroseismology, they would provide two independent methods
to obtain masses and radii and exciting opportunities to develop highly
constrained stellar models. Gaulme et al. (2013) reported the discovery of 13
bona fide candidates (12 previously unknown) to be eclipsing binaries, one to
be an non-eclipsing binary with tidally induced oscillations, and 10 more to be
hierarchical triple systems, all of which include a pulsating red giant. When
ground-based support in terms of atmospheric abundance and radial velocities
are completed, these red giants in eclipsing binary systems have the potential
to become some of the most accurately studied stars.
