Barenaked Ladies’ latest album ‘Grinning Streak’  – their 12th – was produced by Gavin Brown (The Tragically Hip, Metric), Howie Beck (Feist, Josh Rouse) and Mark Endert (Maroon 5, Train) and has gained the band’s best UK reviews to date, specifically:

“Stunningly modern” – HI Fi News,

“Ebullient and infectious” – The Mirror

“Poignant and celebratory” – Mojo

“Engaged and innovative – they have greatness in them” – Q magazine

“Affecting rather than affected, Grinning Streak sees cerebral craftsmen who’ve always refused to take music too seriously drop the winking and discover the pleasures of passion. A winner.” Classic Rock Magazine.

Barenaked Ladies are guitarist/vocalist Ed Robertson, bassist/vocalist Jim Creeggan, keyboardist/vocalist Kevin Hearn and drummer/vocalist Tyler Stewart. Over the course of the past twenty five years, this much loved band have amassed an international fan-base whose members number in the millions, their career highlights including eight Juno Awards and multiple Grammy nominations, more than 14 million albums sold worldwide and a series of hit singles, including “One Week,” “Pinch Me, “Brian Wilson,” “If I Had $1,000,000” and many more, along with the theme song for the hit CBS television series, “The Big Bang Theory.”
