  • Barenaked Ladies Write Song for SCORE: a HOCKEY MUSICAL
    STAR PR Tel: (416) 488-4436 Fax: (416) 488-8438 E-Mail: [email protected] _______________________________________________________________ Barenaked Ladies write song for SCORE: A HOCKEY MUSICAL Barenaked Ladies – the multi-platinum-selling band whose 11th studio album All in Good Time streets March 23rd – have written a song for Michael McGowan’s Score: A Hockey Musical, which stars Olivia Newton-John, as well as Canadian music artists Nelly Furtado, Marc Jordan, Hawksley Workman and Dave Bidini, and newcomers Noah Reid and Allie MacDonald. The film is shooting in Toronto until March 8. The BnL’s song is sung by Reid, Workman and Bidini in the film’s first few scenes, where 17-year-old Farley (Reid) is playing shinny with the neighborhood rink rats (Workman, Bidini, among others). Little do they know that Farley’s puck-handling skills – much to the dismay of his intellectual parents (Newton-John and Jordan) – will send him from obscurity to overwhelming fame within a matter of weeks. The song’s lyrics are co-written by McGowan and the BnL. As a huge fan of the BNL, Michael McGowan says, “Barenaked Ladies were the first musicians I approached about being involved with the film. The group immediately understood what I was trying to achieve and generously agreed to be a part of it. What they delivered musically far surpassed my already high expectations." Although international stars, the BnL (Ed Robertson, Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn and Tyler Stewart) are still based out of their hometown Toronto. The film – which combines our national sport with musical numbers – includes Nelly Furtado as an ardent hockey fan and Allie MacDonald is Farley’s best friend.

  • Upcoming Album by the Cousins, Including a March 17Th Release and Full Track Listing
    I’m having a rather ‘One and Only’ Valentine’s Day evening as I write this editorial but at least I had Jim and Kevin bring me a little ‘Sunshine’ fresh from the studio earlier; new tunes beat roses any day. The serpentine return of The Cousins from the mists of time has also got me thinking lately about another obscure, old family band who haven’t put out an album since 2004 called the Brothers Creeggan. We can live in hope... - Mil NEWS The Ladies have been in the studio all month working on new music! We’ve seen 14 new songs listed so far. Check ‘Features’ on page 3 for the full details.

New details about Rattlesnake Love, the upcoming album by The Cousins, including a March 17th release and full track listing. All the details below.

Kevin and real-life cousin Harland Williams are set to release Rattlesnake Love into the world on March 17th. 11 songs have slithered their way out of The Purple Pineapple Studios with a sound described as ‘a mixture of the sensual, the occult, the poppy, the rocky.’ With enough interest the duo might do a live show so hit their site, subscribe to their mailing list and order Rattlesnake Love soon!

    It’s been... one week- Sorry, force of habit :) It’s been a busy month of festivals and shows for BNL this July but next month the Ladies have some time off scheduled. While we might miss them on stage, prime time for an announcement about Fake Nudes? With a few teasers starting to come, here’s hoping! I’ve spent most of this month getting out in the sun playing Pokémon Go – Yes, one year on there are still people playing, but I’m admittedly a massive Pokémon nerd. Since you have 6 Pokémon on a team I’ve been making a BNL one based on the past and present band members. I haven’t got space to get into who’s a what here but I’d be interested to hear takes from other Poké-peeps. (Tyler’s definitely an Electabuzz though – Just look at that eyebrow action) - Mil NEWS The Ladies kicked off this month with some big Canada 150 celebrations in Toronto and Ottawa! Catch up on page 2. After that, BNL hit the road for a bunch of music festivals across the US and Canada. Get our round-up of the best on page 3. BNL’s first album Gordon is 25 years old this month!

  • Barenaked Ladies New Album Silverball Available on June 2 Nd Last Summer on Earth Tour Begins on June 5 Th in Columbus, Oh
    BARENAKED LADIES NEW ALBUM SILVERBALL AVAILABLE ON JUNE 2 ND LAST SUMMER ON EARTH TOUR BEGINS ON JUNE 5 TH IN COLUMBUS, OH April 7, 2015 - After 27 years together, over 14 million albums sold and multiple Grammy nominations, SILVERBALL, Barenaked Ladies fourteenth studio album, finds the long-standing partnership of Ed Robertson (guitar, vocals), Jim Creeggan (bass, vocals), Kevin Hearn (keyboard, guitar, vocals) and Tyler Stewart (drums, vocals) firing on all cylinders. “I think it would be fair to say if the band was collectively known as Stella, then this record would indicate the reality that Stella had indeed got her groove back,” states Ed Robertson. “This is the first record since our debut, Gordon that was written with no hand-wringing, second-guessing, insecurity or self-doubt,” Robertson asserts. Available on June 2nd, SILVERBALL was produced by the band’s longtime friend Gavin Brown (The Tragically Hip, Metric) who helmed their previous project, 2013 Grinning Streak. The album’s thirteen tracks showcase the band’s growth, while still delivering a flurry of counterpunches and a wisecrack or two, in true BNL fashion. “We’re pushing in new directions—as always, I think—but it’s still unmistakably these four guys playing together, and that’s what I’m most proud of,” Robertson adds. “I put the record on and it doesn’t sound like anything we’ve ever done before, and yet it is unmistakably the new Barenaked Ladies record.” Watch behind the scenes footage on the making of SILVERBALL here: https://youtu.be/WLOD7_HR96I Following the release of SILVERBALL, Barenaked Ladies will be heading back out on the road for their 2015 Last Summer on Earth Tour.
