Crash Test Dummies

 

🎶 Crash Test Dummies 🎶

With one of the most recognizable voices in Canadian music history, Crash Test Dummies are a three-time Grammy-nominated and JUNO Award-winning alternative rock band. The group soared to the top of worldwide charts in the early 1990s with their iconic hits “Mmm, Mmm, Mmm, Mmm” and “Superman’s Song.” 🎤🎸

Their cover of “The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead” was a standout feature on the soundtrack of the blockbuster film Dumb and Dumber, while the band simultaneously reached #4 on the U.S. Top 100 album charts.

🎵 Throughout their career, all of their releases have maintained the same folk-hued alternative spirit that defined their early sound, centered around:

• The distinct baritone vocals of frontman Brad Roberts
• Ellen Reid’s unique folk-rock fusion

After a 20-year hiatus, Crash Test Dummies reunited in 2018 for a two-week tour celebrating their most successful album, God Shuffled His Feet.

The overwhelming response to those reunion shows sparked a new era for the band, leading to continuous touring across North America and Europe, including sold-out performances in:

• Canada
• United States
• United Kingdom
• Germany
• Austria
• Netherlands

💬 “Touring again was not something we’d planned on, but surprisingly - at least to me - there are lots of people who, many years later, still want to come and hear us,” says lead singer and principal songwriter Brad Roberts. “It’s humbling, being in the confidence of so many people.”

🚌 Looking ahead, the band is:

• Returning to the UK in Fall 2026 for an extensive tour
• Embarking on a major West Coast Canada tour to wrap up 2026
• Heading down under in early 2027 for a return tour of Australia

Demand for the band in Australia remains exceptionally strong following their sold-out shows in 2025.

🎸 The dynamic, high-energy live show features the band’s most beloved and iconic songs, performed by original members:

• Brad Roberts
• Ellen Reid
• Dan Roberts
• Mitch Dorge

They are joined by:

• Longtime guitarist Stuart Cameron
• Keyboard virtuoso Leith Fleming-Smith, Canada’s keyboard whiz-kid
