The iconic hit sitcom “The Big Bang Theory” ran for 12 season from 2007-2019. Barenaked ladies is the same band that sang the theme song for the show. The more you know, hey?
Barenaked ladies gained a big following in Canada, when the released of their self-titled 1991 cassette, became the first independent release to be certified gold in Canada. Their debut album “Gordon” featured singles such as “Brian Wilson” and “If I Had $1000000.” When they released Gordon they gained a mainstream following in Canada. They became popular in the US shortly after, and found worldwide success in 1998 following the release of their fourth studio album, “Stunt.”
Barenaked ladies helped form the Canadian Music Creators Coalition with other successful Canadian artists. Steven page, who was the former lead and backing vocals for the band said that the Canadian Music Creator Coalition (CMCC) was formed following major labels suing fans for file sharing as he thinks that was the wring way to handle the situation.
Barenaked ladies have their own ice cream flavour. How cool is that?! They are the only Canadian band to receive their own flavour.
Barenaked ladies have also collaborated with “Reverb” in hoped to inspire people to go more ‘green.’ They have also helped with awareness campaigns against racism and have made multiple appearances on WE charity.
The current members of the band is Ed Robertson, Jim Creeggan, Tyler Stewart and Kevin Hearn. Tickets are still available for their show in Vancouver on the first of December.
