Our Lady Peace is one of Canada’s most successful modern rock bands, known for their eclectic style and frontman Raine Maida’s powerful falsetto vocals.
∙ Their sophomore album, 1997’s Clumsy—featuring the percussive, folky Canadian No. 1 title track and the international hit “Superman’s Dead”—sold 1 million copies in both Canada and the US.
∙ Legendary jazz drummer Elvin Jones, a friend of OLP beat-keeper Jeremy Taggart, played on the epic lament “Stealing Babies” from 1999’s Happiness...Is Not a Fish That You Can Catch.
∙ A departure from the group’s signature layered sound, 2002’s stripped-down Gravity was their biggest US chart success, reaching No. 9 on the Billboard 200.
∙ The 2008 American Idol winner David Cook performed the band’s “Innocent” on the show, sparking a songwriting partnership with Raine Maida on four tunes included on Cook’s hit debut LP.
∙ Our Lady Peace has won four Juno Awards, the Canadian equivalent of the Grammy Awards.
∙ Helmed by Christopher Mills—acclaimed director of Interpol’s “PDA” and Modest Mouse’s “Float On”—the video for 2011’s “Heavyweight” featured an actual exploding house.
