“We have known the guys in Simple Plan for a very long time and know these shows are going to be great,” Sum 41 frontman and vocalist Deryck Whibley said in a press release. “We cannot wait to hit the road with them! We have a lot of fans in common and we know they have waited for this for a very, very long time!
“After not being able to tour for almost two years due to the pandemic, we’re gonna go out there and play our hearts out, enjoy every second of being on these stages and we’ll make sure everyone in the crowd has the time of their lives,” he added.
“We’re so happy to finally be able to play shows again and couldn’t be more excited to head out on the ‘Blame Canada’ tour with Sum 41,” Simple Plan said in a statement.
“It’s hard to believe this will the first time we will co-headline a tour together, but the timing couldn’t be better as we both celebrate the 20th anniversary of our debut albums,” added the band members, Pierre Bouvier, Chuck Comeau, Sebastien Lefebvre and Jeff Stinco.
