CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ALBUM, A TOP 5 DEBUT ON BILLBOARD 200, ARRIVES ON STREAMING PLATFORMS WITH DOLBY ATMOS MIX
Barenaked Ladies’ fifth studio album, Maroon, is available today in spatial audio across all streaming platforms that support Dolby ATMOS. Listen HERE.
Fresh off their 1998 chart-topping album, Stunt, Barenaked Ladies—Ed Robertson, Steven Page, Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn, and Tyler Stewart —delved into the platinum-certified Maroon. Collaborating with legendary producer Don Was (The Rolling Stones, John Mayer, Brian Wilson), the album reached #5 on the Billboard 200 and featured hit songs like “Pinch Me,” “Too Little Too Late,” and “Falling for the First Time.”
“Making Maroon was one of my favorite recording experiences. It was a super creative and confident time for us. Hearing it in Atmos has been really cool too!! It puts a new spin on such a rich session.” – Ed Robertson
“Pinch Me” has become a pop culture staple, featured in TV shows like Dawson’s Creek and Scrubs. The band also made a memorable on-screen performance of the song at the club P3 during an episode of Charmed. The song soared to #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains a huge fan favorite, a testament to its lasting power and a song that continues to resonate with audiences on every live tour. The hilarious music video, directed by Phil Harder (Prince, Foo Fighters, Matchbox 20), features the band getting stuck in a surreal, time-looping diner filled with synchronized, frozen customers. Watch HERE.
Following the 2020 20th Anniversary Special Edition—which featured rarities, a double vinyl, and a deluxe digital edition—the ultimate Maroon package is now complete in Dolby Atmos Spatial Audio. Spatial audio creates an immersive listening experience by placing instruments and vocals in a three-dimensional space, simulating how we hear sound in real life. It brings new depth and clarity to these classic albums by surrounding the listener from all directions and reveals the music in a stunning new way.
WATCH NOW – The band offers a rare, behind-the-scenes look at their time in Los Angeles, reflecting on their creative process and their experience recording the album with legendary producer Don Was.
