The fifteenth studio album from Barenaked Ladies, "Fake Nudes" is finely crafted yet flowing with carefree energy, stylistically adventurous yet rooted in timeless melodies and unforgettable hooks. In bringing their latest album to life, Barenaked Ladies found their chemistry and camaraderie stronger than ever before. With next year marking the thirtieth anniversary of the Toronto-based band—which has now sold over 14 million albums worldwide and earned multiple JUNO Awards and Grammy nominations—"Fake Nudes" emerges as their most dynamic album to date.

She’s had five #1 singles, sold millions of records, won the Academy of Country Music’s Top Female Vocalist Award and claimed a Country Music Association trophy for her signature song, “Born To Fly.” It’s tough to imagine many accomplishments Sara Evans hasn’t already checked off her bucket list. And yet, with the release of her eighth studio album, "Words" demonstrates that she’s still willing to leap into the unknown, taking greater control of her career and calling the shots in a way that’s unusual in country music – particularly unusual for a woman in the genre. Evans is also going on tour with seasonal shows created to deliver the holiday spirit to young and old.

Lili Mirojnick stars as a series regular role opposite Chris Meloni in the new Syfy series, "Happy!," based on Grant Morrison and Darick Robertson’s graphic novel. Originally written by Morrison and co-created with artist Darick Robertson, the show follows Nick Sax – a former cop turned hit man. After a hit goes awry, Nick starts to see a tiny imaginary blue winged horse. Mirojnick plays Det. Merry McCarthy, a tough homicide detective in a man’s world who’s had to swallow her pride to save her job and protect her elderly mother.

Both "The Beautiful & Damned" album and short film paint a very dire portrait of Gerald/G-Eazy that is very real and has never been shared by him before. Heavy-handed in reference to F. Scott Fitzgerald‘s novel of the same name, "The Beautiful and Damned" shows us hung-over Gerald left having to clean up reckless G’s aftermath on a daily basis. The dueling narrative he conveys is as desperate, humble and confessional as it is brazen, celebratory and loud in its own hubris. This album and film are about the duality of these two characters who wrestle inside of him, and the beginning of that communication and process on how to preserve his true self.

Born during the rise of grunge and alternative rock, Collective Soul broke into mainstream popularity when they rose to international fame in 1993 with the rock anthem “Shine.” The multi-platinum quintet has been making music for two decades since then and has a catalog of #1 hits under their belts. Collective Soul helped shape and define alternative rock with lots of guitars and attitude. Now, the rock band is proud to be releasing their first proper live album of the group’s 20+ year career, "Collective Soul – Live." It's safe to say that the group staunchly and proudly remains a rock ‘n’ roll band through and through. Ed Roland & Jesse Triplett dropped by BUILD to talk about the new album.
