The original Barenaked Ladies will be together on stage in March for the first time in nearly a decade.

Stephen Page, who left the band in 2009, will reunite with Ed Robertson, Tyler Stewart, Jim Creeggan, and Kevin Hearn to be inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

The tribute takes place during the Juno Awards on March 25 in Vancouver. 

“For almost 30 years we've worked hard to write the best songs we can, make the best records we can make, and do the best shows possible,” Robertson said, in a release. “We’ve travelled the world with our music, but Canada has always been home. This is very special for us.”

Page pursued a solo career after disagreements with his bandmates and some personal drama – including a drug arrest in 2008. With Page, Barenaked Ladies had hits like “If I Had $1,000,000” and “One Week.”

The remaining members of Barenaked Ladies went on to release five albums.

Previous inductees into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame include Alanis Morissette, Leonard Cohen and Sarah McLachlan.
