Barenaked Ladies head to Albert Hall in Manchester this December, performing festive favourites from their much-loved Christmas album ‘Barenaked For The Holidays’ alongside other fan-favourites from their back catalog

Over the past 38 years, Barenaked Ladies have established themselves as a much-loved live tour de force – consistently selling out tours across the globe. Hit singles, virtuoso musicianship, and a unique and special bond with their audience make an evening with Barenaked Ladies something very special indeed.

Yuletide Ride follows the format of the bands sold out 2022 Canadian tour – where the band played festival favourites from their much-loved 2014 Christmas album “Barenaked For The Holidays” alongside their staple of hits, including “One Week”, “If I Had a $1,000,000”, “Pinch Me” and “Big Bang Theory Theme”. “Barenaked For The Holidays” features cover versions of classic Christmas songs alongside originals such as “Green Christmas” (from The Grinch film) and “Elf’s Lament” (featuring a – at the time – relatively unknown Michael Bublé!).

After more than three decades as the lead singer and guitarist for Barenaked Ladies, Ed Robertson has a routine when it comes time to start writing songs for a new album. “I tend to get ideas while I’m driving up to my lake house,” he says. “I record voice memos along the way, and then I listen back and try to make sense of them and mix and match the various ideas I’ve come up with. On a typical drive, I’m happy if I get six or seven, and eight would be a good drive!”

“I think this band is the underdog success story of the century,” Robertson continues. “Show me another band with a 35-year career, 15 million records sold, number one hits worldwide, and that has never been on the cover of any major music publication. We’re a band that has committed to being who we are and what we are, and being as good as we can be—doing the best shows we can do, writing the best songs we can write—and we’ve done it for 35 years. I’m super proud of that.”

Yuletide Ride will be a night to relax, smile, and enjoy a night of unbridled joy. YULE LOVE IT!

Ed Robertson says, “We’re very excited to be returning to the UK just in time for the Holidays. We’ll be bringing the Hits, The Holiday Favs, and a few tasty surprises with us.”
