Saskatchewan Roughriders News Release
The 101st Grey Cup Festival Committee announced today that one of Canada's premiere rock bands 'Barenaked Ladies' will perform on Friday, November 22nd as part of the Molson Canadian Live Champion's Concert Series.
Among the truths we hold to be self-evident are these: Canadian bands can play their asses off, and they can also bring the funny. No outfit hailing from north of the border embodies these paired virtues more engagingly than the Barenaked Ladies, whose fusion of hooks and yuks has resulted in more than 14 million albums sold, as well as putting myriad fannies in the seats of concert halls and amphitheaters around the world.
On the occasion of the band's 25th anniversary, BNL-Ed Robertson (guitar/vocals), Jim Creeggan (bass/vocals), Kevin Hearn (keyboard/guitar/vocals) and Tyler Stewart (drums/vocals)-are celebrating with new album GRINNING STREAK. The album, the band's twelfth, is their first in partnership with Vanguard Records after self-releasing their last four efforts.
Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Friday, October 11th at 10:00am at all Ticketmaster locations or through 101greycupfestival.ca.
The Barenaked Ladies will join Hedley (Thursday) and Big and Rich (Saturday) to complete the Molson Canadian Live Champion's Concert Series.
