Simple Plan the Canadian pop punk band from Montréal, Québec will be performing Live in Malaysia with its members ie. Pierre Bouvier (lead vocals), Jeff Stinco (lead guitar), Sébastien Lefebvre (rhythm guitar, backing vocals), David Desrosiers (bass guitar, backing vocals) and Chuck Comeau (drums and percussion).
They have released four studio albums: No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls (2002), Still Not Getting Any… (2004), Simple Plan (2008) and Get Your Heart On! (2011); as well as two widely marketed live albums: Live in Japan 2002 (2003) and MTV Hard Rock Live (2005).
In 2002, Simple Plan released their first studio album, No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls which led to the subsequent singles: “I’m Just a Kid“, “I’d Do Anything“, “Addicted“, and “Perfect“. Simple Plan is noted as saying that they were aiming at a pure pop-punk record.
In support of the album in 2002, the year it was released, Simple Plan played more than 300 shows, topped the Alternative New Artist Chart, and played a sold out tour in Japan. In 2003, the band played as a headliner on the Vans Warped Tour — an appearance memorialized in the comedy slasher film, Punk Rock Holocaust, in which four of the five band members are killed. They would also play short stints on the Warped Tour in 2004 and 2005. Also in 2003, they opened for Avril Lavigne on her “Try To Shut Me Up” Tour. In addition to several headlining tours, they have also opened for Green Day and Good Charlotte.The album had sold one million copies in early 2003 then went on to sell over four million copies worldwide
In 2004, Simple Plan released their second album, Still Not Getting Any… which led to the subsequent singles, “Welcome to My Life“, “Shut Up!“, “Untitled (How Could This Happen to Me?)“, “Crazy“, and (in some markets) “Perfect World“.
In 2007 When I’m Gone“, the first single from Simple Plan was released on 29 October ,2007 when the band held a fan webcast. On 17 February 2008, Simple Plan achieved their highest charting single in the UK. “When I’m Gone” gave the band their best chart position in the UK, coming in at number 26.
With the recent release of their fourth studio album, Get Your Heart On!, Simple Plan continues to gain worldwide recognition. Currently on a sold-out European tour, the multi-platinum, Montreal-based band boasts worldwide sales topping 7 million. Simple Plan’s fourth album, this summer’s Get Your Heart On!, has already reached gold status in Canada and spawned a radio hit in Jet Lag. A testament to their outstanding popularity, the band has been voted Favourite Canadian Band an unprecedented five times by viewers of the MuchMusic Video Awards.
Accolades also include the 2006 JUNO Fan Choice Award and the 2005 Teen Choice Award. The members of Simple Plan have used their global popularity for good by starting the Simple Plan Foundation, which raises money for a variety of charities
The band have helped nonprofit and advocacy groups by donating to many established organizations such as the MTV Asia Aid benefit, MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving), RADD (Recording Artists, Actors, and Athletes against Drunk Driving), and the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
However, after being frustrated because the members did not know exactly where their money was going to, the Simple Plan members created the Simple Plan Foundation,a foundation that focuses on teen problems ranging from suicide to poverty to drug addiction.
In June 2008, they announced plans for the foundation to distribute $100,000 to organizations that aid children or families experiencing difficulties due to handicaps or illness. The Foundation also donated $10,000 towards The Canadian Haiti Relief Fund.
On 15 March 2011, as a result of Japan’s 8.9 Richter scale earthquake, the Simple Plan Foundation stated it would be donating $10,000 to the Japan Red Cross Relief Efforts, and that fans could help donate by purchasing a “Simple Plan Help Japan” t-shirt for $20, making clear that all proceeds are going towards the fund from the t-shirts.
