LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) – Multi-platinum rock band the Barenaked Ladies have today (Jan. 17) announced their extensive 2020 ‘Last Summer On Earth’ North American tour.
Following their critically-acclaimed 2019 tour with Hootie & the Blowfish, the Barenaked Ladies will play major venues across North America, including stops at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, Red Rocks, SummerStage in New York City and more, with the tour finale at Toronto’s Budweiser Stage, with special guest Kim Mitchell also on the bill. Gin Blossoms and Toad the Wet Sprocket will round out the lineup for the trek.
These dates follow a string of spring shows throughout the UK, which will culminate with a sold-out performance at London’s legendary Royal Albert Hall.
This will be the 6th edition of the tour, founded by the band in 2012 – the year that the Mayan calendar predicted would be the last, hence the “Last Summer On Earth”. Traditionally, the Barenaked Ladies headline and bring some of their friends and favorite bands along for the ride. Past acts have included Cracker, Big Head Todd & the Monsters, Blues Traveler, Guster, Ben Folds Five, Violent Femmes, Colin Hay, OMD, Howard Jones, Better Than Ezra, and KT Tunstall.
Each ticket purchased for the 2020 edition of ‘Last Summer On Earth’ will include a digital download of Barenaked Ladies’ forthcoming album, which is due for release in May of 2020. Tickets go on sale to the general public Saturday, January 25th at 10am.
