Barenaked Ladies band frontman Steven Page was arrested in Central New York for possession of cocaine.

Police arrested the 38-year-old singer, known for his clean-cut image and goofy stage antics, and two women – ages 27 and 25 – Friday in an apartment in the Village of Fayetteville according to the NY Daily News.

The squeaky-clean Canadian alternative rock band was celebrating the release of its first full-length children’s album, “Snack Time,” at the time of Page’s arrest.

Police in Manlius, NY said that as they checked out a suspicious car with its doors open sitting outside an apartment building, when they saw the suspects and the drugs through the glass door of a home.

The Barenaked Ladies had a hit “If I Had a $1,000,000,” but Page only needed $10,000 to make bail and is due in court Thursday to face the music.
