Grinning Streak

Barenaked Ladies

Polished pop rock with subtle electronic flourishes. A resilient, harmony-drenched record about finding footing and humor in the middle of life's journey.

It's the sound of a classic band finding their second wind with big hooks and even bigger harmonies.

A bright, resilient collection of pop songs that balances mid-life wisdom with infectious energy.
