ACOUSTIC DIGITAL EP AVAILABLE TODAY – STREAM NOW
TORONTO, ON. (May 16, 2025) – MULTI-PLATINUM-selling Rock legends Barenaked Ladies take to the skies with their brand new digital-only EP, In Flight – Carry On, available on all streaming platforms today. Listen here.
Reinventing, reimagining, and recharging seven fan favorite tracks from 2023’s acclaimed album In Flight, the musicians strip these tunes down to the bare essentials with just acoustic instrumentation and vocals. The self-produced EP presents the music from a fresh perspective, highlighting the group’s impeccable songcraft and raw performances front-and-center. In this iteration, the hooks and melodies really soar in classic Barenaked Ladies fashion. Preceding the project’s arrival, they released “Fifty for a While (Acoustic)” and “Clearly Lost (Acoustic).” In Flight is now also available in Dolby Atmos-mastered version here.
Next up, tourmates Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies and Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray will guest on a new episode of comedian Bert Kreischer’s popular podcast Something’s Burning on Tuesday May 20. Together, they’ll break down what fans can expect from Barenaked Ladies’ much-anticipated Last Summer On Earth 2025 Tour — which Sugar Ray will join from July 8-August 2.
Known for an electrifying live show that attracts audiences of all ages, the group notably turned up on NBC’s TODAY with a thrilling performance of their signature cult favorite “One Week” (watch here).
With the EP out, they’ll hit the road on the Last Summer On Earth 2025 Tour, beginning June 3 at Synovus Bank Amphitheater at Chastain Park in Atlanta, GA. The 38-city headline run continues through August 2 at Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkston, MI. The band will also bring the eighth edition of their iconic tour to famed venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, The Rooftop at Pier 17 in New York City, The Chicago Theater in Chicago, and a hometown show at Budweiser Stage in Toronto, ON. Alt-Rock mainstays Guster will join the bill from June 3 to 28 and Sugar Ray will hop on the lineup from July 8 to August 2 with Fastball accompanying as support on all shows.
