About Barenaked Ladies
Barenaked Ladies are a popular Canadian rock band that hit it big in the U.S. with their 1998 Billboard Hot 100 No.1 hit single “One Week.” With their eclectic blend of witty lyrics, pop harmonies and melodic folk, the band was already charting in Canada in 1992 with singles like “Be My Yoko Ono,” “If I Had $1000000” and “Brian Wilson.” It was their fourth studio album, Stunt (1998), that turned them into a global sensation behind “One Week.” The album also peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. Barenaked Ladies would go on to sell 15 million albums worldwide and pen the iconic theme song for award-winning television sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Since 2012, the Canadian rockers have toured their Last Summer on Earth tour. The tour has featured bands like Gin Blossoms, Blues Traveler, Ben Folds Five, Violent Femmes, KT Tunstall and many others. The quartet was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2018.
About Toad the Wet Sprocket
Toad the Wet Sprocket was formed in 1986 by a group of high school friends in Santa Barbara, CA. The band achieved modest success on college radio with early albums like Bread & Circus (1989) and Pale (1990), but it wasn't until the 1991 release of their third album Fear that they really broke through to the mainstream. Top 20 singles "All I Want" and "Walk on the Ocean" propelled the album to platinum sales, paving the way for extensive touring throughout the US and Europe. Their follow-up album Dulcinea in 1994 was a similar success, scoring the band their first chart-topper with "Fall Down". After breaking up in 1998 the band reassembled periodically over the years to play shows, and in 2009 they reunited full-time to begin work on a new album. The result was 2013's New Constellation, a critical and commercial success that marked their return to the charts and set the stage for continued touring. In 2013, the beloved alt-rockers released their first album of new material in more than 15 years, and proved they've lost none of their energy or melodic sense with a series of electrifying shows. Frontman Glen Phillips and his bandmates can nail a harmony with the best of them, and they're musicianship really shines on cuts from the new album like "The Moment". While the band is excited about the new release, fans of their earlier work have nothing to worry about -- Toad the Wet Sprocket's sets consistently top the two hour mark, and their upcoming dates with Counting Crows will feature all their classic hits including "All I Want" and "Good Intentions".
