Last Summer on Earth 2025 Tour
MULTI-PLATINUM-selling Rock band Barenaked Ladies announce the return of their legendary Last Summer On Earth 2025 Tour. The 38-date headline run includes a stop at Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater in Bridgeport, CT, on July 13, 2025. Guster and Alt-Rock heavy-hitters Fastball will join as special guests.
The public on-sale for the Last Summer On Earth 2025 Tour will begin this Friday, February 14 at 10 am and go here and see below for the full tour itinerary. VIP Silver packages for Barenaked Ladies will be available which include premium seats and merch packages. The Gold packages will also include pre-show soundcheck parties, a meet-and-greet and a photo opportunity with the band.
“This is going to be a fantastic last summer on earth,” says Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies. “A great night, chock-full of hits! We’ve got our old pals Guster out with us once again, the amazing Sugar Ray joining mid-summer, and our good friends Fastball on the whole tour. If we’re not coming to a city near you, then you should be coming to a city near us!”
Each show will find the eight-time JUNO winners tearing through a jam-packed setlist of all-time fan favorites and radio-dominating smash hits, including “One Week” which skyrocketed to #1 in the U.S., Top 20 singles like “Pinch Me,” and “If I Had $1,000,000,” and arguably one of their best known songs, “Big Bang Theory Theme.” The TV show is one of the top scripted comedy shows of all time and is still streamed in over 70 countries worldwide, more than a decade after its final episode aired.
Known for creating a near-magical connection with their audience, Barenaked Ladies founded the Last Summer On Earth Tour in 2012 — the same year the Mayan calendar predicted the end of the world. Thanks to their deep commitment to delivering an unforgettable live show, the two-time GRAMMY-nominated band have earned massive praise from the likes of Billboard (“Barenaked Ladies’ energy was contagious and set the stage for what would be a high-energy evening of sing-alongs and throwback hits”), Forbes (“[Barenaked Ladies are] known for a freestyle, go-where-the-music-takes-you approach in their live shows they tend to enjoy as much as the fans”), and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (“The big hits still hit big”).
Barenaked Ladies is proud to continue to partner with REVERB for Last Summer On Earth 2025 to make the tour more sustainable. Since 2004, Barenaked Ladies has worked with REVERB to reduce the environmental impact of touring while also giving back to local communities across the U.S. and Canada.
With Alt-Rock mainstays Guster returning for the second time to the bill from June 3 to 28, and Pop hitmakers Sugar Ray as direct support from July 8 to August 2, and Fastball on all shows, the Last Summer On Earth 2025 Tour is sure to be a must-see from start to finish. Over the years, the Last Summer On Earth has previously included support from some of Barenaked Ladies’ most esteemed musical peers, including Cracker, Big Head Todd & the Monsters, Blues Traveler, Ben Folds Five, Violent Femmes, Colin Hay, OMD, Howard Jones, Better Than Ezra, KT Tunstall, Semisonic, Five for Fighting, and Del Amitri.
Barenaked Ladies
Over the course of 37 years, the beloved quartet has sold over 15 MILLION records worldwide and built up an arsenal of hits such as “If I Had $1,000,000,” “One Week,” “Pinch Me,” and “The Big Bang Theory Theme.” Widely acknowledged as one of the best live acts on the planet, BNL has hosted a cruise, had their own Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor, and participated in the first-ever “space-to-earth musical collaboration” with astronaut Chris Hadfield. To date, BNL has amassed eight JUNO Awards, garnered two GRAMMY nominations, and was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. BNL’s 18th studio album, In Flight was released in 2023 and features 14 brand-new studio recordings. It’s available everywhere you stream music.
Sugar Ray
Beyond sales of 10 MILLION records, four Top 10 songs, over a BILLION streams, and MILLIONS of tickets sold, Sugar Ray — co-founded by Mark McGrath (vocals) and Rodney Sheppard (lead guitar) — embody the endless summer of popular music and culture. How many artists still pack amphitheaters a whole generation removed from their genesis? How many acts can claim sharing the stage with The Rolling Stones, KISS, and Sex Pistols, collaborating with Run-DMC, and being interpolated by Post Malone? After 1994’s Lemonade & Brownies earned cult-classic status for its frenetic and unpredictable hybrid, the band returned with the double-platinum FLOORED in 1997 and soon became a household name thanks to its immortal lead single “Fly” (feat. Super Cat). With their catalog also including the triple-platinum 14:59, Sugar Ray dropped their seventh full-length, Little Yachty, in 2019, with NPR hailing the album’s “signature uplifting and airy rock sound.” No matter how much everything changes, we’ve got Sugar Ray forever.
Fastball
Fastball is an Alternative Rock band, best known as the platinum-selling, GRAMMY-nominated trio from Austin, Texas. From their earliest hit songs, “The Way” and “Out of My Head,” through the years Fastball has continually honed its voice and sound, which has further evolved on its latest, critically acclaimed album, Sonic Ranch. Powered by the exuberant first single and video “Rather Be Me Than You,” following the album release, the band rolled out a music video for their newest single and album track, “Hummingbird.” Fastball has toured extensively throughout 2024 performing before sell-out crowds of loyal fans who have supported the band for over 30 years, as well as an audience of new, young fans just discovering them.
