Yesterday, Our Lady Peace performed at a secret location to launch their latest album, “Burn Burn.” andPOP was part of this exclusive concert where OLP played their latest songs as well as fan favourites from the past.

The event took place at the Sony Soundstage in Toronto and was broadcast live-to-air through 102.1 The Edge and Explore Music.

Throughout the concert, OLP played songs form their new album, including the single “All You Did Was Save My Life” featuring “90210’s” Shenae Grimes in the music video, and “Paper Moon.”

To the excitement of fans, OLP performed “Innocent” and “Somewhere Out There,” off their 2002 album “Gravity,” among other hits. Since only a fraction of their fans were able to see them live in convert, the band answered questions sent to Alan Cross’ Twitter page for those who were unable to attend the event.

So why did they take so long to release another album? OLP vocalist Raine Maida explains.

“The last record we made, a combination of too’s. It took too long, it’s too expensive and there was too much drama attached to it so we needed to kind of extricate ourselves from that whole recording process…the time away allowed us to come back and really, it sounds cliche but we’re better than ever,” Maida said. “We really came back to this trusting our own instincts.”

OLP also talked about the recording process.

“We really kind of stayed true to recording things live. Every guitar part you hear, every solo,” Maida revealed. “And I think the guitar work on this record is unbelievable…If I wasn’t in this band and I heard this record, I would play tambourine…I’d just want to be in this band.”
