They will kick off their first Canadian tour since 2004 in Victoria, BC on October 1stand then make their way across the country. The band will be playing in Winnipeg with the original lineup. Oooh LaLa! was released on May 11th and was their first record in six years. The album features 11 tracks using ‘70s-era analog musical toys and was co-written and produced Stewart Lerman (Antony & the Johnsons, The Roches).

The Crash Test Dummies first rose to prominence while based in their hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1991 with their Juno Award-winning debut album, The Ghosts that Haunt Me, featuring their first hit single “Superman’s Song.” Their 1993 breakout record God Shuffled His Feet has sold over five and a half million copies worldwide and the single “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm” peaked at #4 on Billboard’s Hot 100 Chart. Oooh La La is the band’s ninth record, following 2004’s Songs of the Unforgiven.
