Description
Fake Nudes features fourteen freshly minted tracks including the catchy lead single 'Lookin' Up' written by BNL frontman Ed Robertson, Kevin Griffin (Better Than Ezra) and Sam Hollander (who has co-written with Weezer, Fitz & The Tantrums and Train).

States Ed Robertson, 'I'm incredibly proud of this collection of songs. This is a record where all band members shine. It's incredible to feel so excited about something 29 years into our career. I'm excited to get out and play these songs live.'

Fake Nudes finds the long-standing partnership of Ed Robertson (guitar, vocals), Jim Creeggan (bass, vocals), Kevin Hearn (keyboard, guitar, vocals) and Tyler Stewart (drums, vocals) in top form, capturing the rock icons' incredible camaraderie and musicianship that stand as a testament to the band's remarkable longevity. Back on board is award-winning producer Gavin Brown, who has helmed the band's last few projects, Grinning Streak (2013), Silverball (2015), and Ladies And Gentlemen: Barenaked Ladies And The Persuasions (2017).

Wow, they keep going, huh? I jumped off the boat after Steven Page left, and try with each release to see if I can abide jumping back on. Hasn't happened yet, and these tracks aren't tempting me. (And they're about two years too late to jump on the group vocal/stomp "Hey...Ho..." bandwagon.)

I underrated Page's importance to the band. Truly a "sum of the parts" deal. I recently watched the Red Rocks show on AXS-TV - just didn't cut it for me.

yeah... i keep buying all their albums as well.
and why?
because there are usually one or two good songs on each of them.
i've been making my own full-length albums out of those selections.
don't laugh at me... i know many of you do the same thing with some artists.
