Barenaked Ladies announce today their celebrated “Last Summer on Earth 2018” Tour with special guests Better Than Ezra and KT Tunstall. “Last Summer on Earth 2018” Tour kicks off on June 1st wrapping up on July 15th. With each ticket purchased, fans receive a download of BNL’s new album Fake Nudes!

“The Last Summer on Earth tour is something we all really look forward to.” states Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies. “From its inception, it’s been about putting together great live acts to give the audience a great night out. 2018 is going to be a blast, because we’re touring with friends! Kevin Griffin from Better Than Ezra has been a songwriting collaborator for almost a decade and KT and I rocked together in Yukon Kornelius. This is going to be a great tour with lots of collaboration.”

Barenaked Ladies premiere their 15th studio album Fake Nudes today via Huffington Post. Fake Nudes builds off the band’s harmony- rich hybrid of folk and pop/rock and pushes into more eclectic sonic terrain marking the bands most dynamic record to date. Fake Nudes is available November 17th on Vanguard Records or pre-order now. Fake Nudes is finely crafted yet flowing with carefree energy, stylistically adventurous yet rooted in timeless melodies and unforgettable hooks. As Robertson explains, the close collaboration that fueled the making of the album has everything to do with the band's deep connection on an artistic and individual level. "It's all about trust, and knowing that you can rely on the strengths of your bandmates," he says. "Whenever I go into the studio with new demos, I can always trust Jim and Ty and Kev's instincts, and know that adding each of their personalities to the mix will make the songs that much better." 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. Through the years, the band has endlessly proved their undeniable power as a live act, with each set propelled by their palpable chemistry. "The way you get to 29 years together is by really working at it, by listening to each other and respecting each other," says Robertson in reflecting on the longevity of the band. "When there's a struggle, you've got to take a step back and say, 'Whatever's squeaking in the cogs of this machine, let's work it out, because at the end of the day we get to play music every night and have all these people come out to sing along with us.'
