5 years since the release of “Get Your Heart On!”

AUTHOR: Dominika | 21. June 2016 | no comments

Exactly 5 years ago on this day, on June 21st 2011, Simple Plan released their 4th studio album – ‘Get Your Heart On!’.

To this day, GYHO [as fans like to shorten it] has the highest amount of collaborations on any Simple Plan album. These collaborations include Marie-Mai and Natasha Bedingfield [and other live singers] on ‘Jet Lag’, Sean Paul, K’Naan, MKTO and other on the many versions of ‘Summer Paradise’, Alex Gaskarth on ‘Freaking Me Out’ and Rivers Cuomo on ‘Can’t Keep My Hands Off You’.

Two years later (in 2013), GYHO got a little baby brother in a form of an EP called ‘Get Your Heart On – The Second Coming’, which featured a number of b-sides from the writing process of GYHO.

Can you believe you’ve been listening to this record for 5 years now? What is you favorite song?

Simple Plan announce Canadian tour with All Time Low and PVRIS!

AUTHOR: Dominika | 20. June 2016 | 3 comments

Yes, you heard correctly! Simple Plan are coming back to Canada in November with another stellar line-up! The band will be once again joined by their old friend from All Time Low, who they’ve toured with on the Canadian soil the last time, in 2012. And with them, they will also tag along PVRIS, another American band, who’s SP have mentioned many times in the past to be very fond of. Members of all these bands have also starred in Simple Plan’s music video for ‘Boom’.

This tour will lead Simple Plan to the following Canadian cities: London, Toronto, Ottawa, Quebec City, Hallifax and Montreal. All Time Low will be present for all the dates, except for the hometown show in Montreal. PVRIS will play Montreal with Simple Plan, but the second opening act will be announced the supporting act later.

The excited fans are already coming up with various surprises that might come along now that we know of the opening bands for the Canadian tour. Firstly, we might once again hear Simple Plan perform ‘Freaking Me Out’ feat. Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low [remember last time?]. And who knows? Maybe the guys will even ask Lyndsey Gunnulfsen from PVRIS to sing ‘Jet Lag’ live, which will extend our list of female singers, who’ve sang on this song.

Tickets for QC and Montreal go on sale on Thursday, 10am and for the rest of the dates on Friday, also 10am. Check out all the tourdates and the newly released tourposter below:
