Whether they’re doing a mash-up of rap hits, complete with questionable ‘80s choreography, or leading a sing-along of “If I Had $1,000,000,” Barenaked Ladies has always been a must-see live band. Their quirky sense of humor, harmonies that even Paul McCartney envies, and feel-good grooves make for a perfect night of music (probably why “Brian Wilson” was once covered live by none other than Brian Wilson). Now, the multi-platinum-selling Canadian rockers bring their rollicking roadshow to Huntington. Jam along to BNL’s biggest hits, like the chart-topping “One Week”, “Pinch Me” “It’s All Been Done,” and the theme song to CBS’s The Big Bang Theory, plus songs from their new album, Fake Nudes.

Recently inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, Barenaked Ladies is on a nationwide tour in support of their fifteenth studio album, Fake Nudes. In bringing their latest album to life, Barenaked Ladies found their chemistry and camaraderie stronger than ever before. With next year marking the thirtieth anniversary of the Toronto-based band—which has now sold over 14 million albums worldwide and earned multiple JUNO awards and GRAMMY nominations—Fake Nudes emerges as their most dynamic album to date. The band never fails to deliver hook-laden goodness.
