Barenaked Ladies to be inducted into the Canadian Music HOF

Not in Hall of Fame
The Canadian Music Hall of Fame has announced that Barenaked Ladies will become the next members.

Barenaked Ladies formed in Scarborough, Ontario in 1988 and quickly developed a cult following in the Toronto area. The group didn’t sound like anyone else as not only were they quirky they sang about topics that hadn’t been dealt with and did so in a fun way. It wasn’t long before they had a major record deal and they became national sensations with songs like “If I Had a Million Dollars” and “Be My Yoko Ono” receiving national airplay.

By the late 90’s, the Ladies were not just Canadian sensations but international ones. Their single “One Week” went number one in the United States and they had other major smashes such as “It’s All Been Done” and “Pinch Me”.

As their style became more sophisticated they still maintained their uniqueness and distinct style.

What is very significant about this induction is that when it takes place at the Juno Awards this March it will be the first tie Steven Page, who acrimoniously left the group in 2009 will be with them.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Barenaked Ladies for earning this prestigious honor.
