Barenaked Ladies have cancelled two Ottawa shows that were originally postponed in December.

The band's Snacktime! children's show and Barenaked For The Holidays appearances at Ottawa's National Arts Centre on Dec. 13 were postponed because of a family emergency, but the band haven't been able to reschedule them. Ticket holders can get refunds at the point of purchase.

Barenaked Ladies completed their Ships & Dip V roundtrip cruise from Miami, Fla. to Cozumel, Mexico on Friday. You can see photos from the cruise on photographer David Bergman's website.

Keyboardist Kevin Hearn will release a new album in April. You can see him open for Jenn Grant at these shows:

Feb. 12 Toronto, ON @ The Mod Club
