Editor's note

Walk off the Earth, the viral cover band from Ontario

A Canadian group known for one-take videos and a mix of pop, folk, and electronic songs.

For a quick sense of their sound, check out "Champs-Élysées" or "Tomorrow Can Wait." They're more than just that viral moment.

They broke through in 2012 with a viral one-take cover of Rihanna's "We Found Love," which put their collective musicianship on the map. Their own tracks like "Champs-Élysées" and "Tomorrow Can Wait" show an eclectic blend of styles that keeps them distinct from just being a cover act. Even a controversial 2018 cover of Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie" sparked conversations about intent and awareness.

Formed in Burlington, Ontario in 2006, they gained fame with that 2012 viral video and released albums like "R.E.V.O." in 2013. After founding member Gianni Luminati left in 2014, they continued as a quartet with Mike Taylor on lead vocals, putting out "Sing It All Away" in 2015.
