Barenaked Ladies


Levitt Pavilion Arlington

A witty hybrid of folk, pop and rock with special guest, Daphne Willis at 7:30 p.m.

After 30 years together, Barenaked Ladies can predict how they will be introduced whether it’s live or on TV or radio: They’re not naked, and they’re not ladies. With their senses of humor fully intact, the Toronto-based Barenaked Ladies offer up a harmony-rich hybrid of folk and pop/rock mixed with clever lyrics. With more than 14 million albums sold worldwide, multiple JUNO Awards and Grammy Award nominations, Barenaked Ladies is best known for “One Week,” “The Old Apartment,” “It’s All Been Done,” “If I Had $1,000,000,” “Brian Wilson,” and of course, the theme song to TV’s Big Bang Theory. Most recently, they were 2018 inductees to the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. Barenaked Ladies latest album, Fake Nudes, is their answer to the 30-year introduction joke about their name as well as a play on the president’s obsession with “fake news.” “It just seemed so perfect – we are fake nudes,” said Ed Robertson, the band’s lead singer and guitarist. In bringing their latest album, their 15th, to life, Barenaked Ladies found their chemistry and camaraderie stronger than ever before for what may be their most dynamic album to date. Like many of their previous recordings, Fake Nudes, blends their honest emotion with their playfully clever wit.

VIP Experience tickets for the concert are $185 and include a reserved parking area, a pre-concert dinner, a live auction and reserved seats in the VIP section for the concert. General admission tickets are $40. The Barenaked Ladies concert is the only Levitt concert this year that requires a ticket purchase.

Daphne Willis will perform her infectious, genre-defying music at 7:30 p.m. before the Barenaked Ladies take the stage at 9 p.m.
