Yesterday evening, the lead singer of Simple Plan, Pierre Bouvier, appeared on Twitter after a long time to thank his fans for the number of birthday wishes he has received that day, congratulation him on his 34th birthday (May 9th). In his tweets Pierre apologized for not tweeting much, as he wanted to focus on his private life for some time, and teased the fans by saying that “[Simple Plan are] getting ready to release new stuff soon.”
And even though we already know that the guys like to say soon quite often, this time around, soon might be even sooner than per usual – according to the interview that I conducted with Chuck a couple months ago, Simple Plan have already started working on some new music and would like to release a couple of songs (5-6) on an EP by the end of 2013. This EP should then serve as a bridge between Get Your Heart On! and the upcoming Simple Plan record that the guys should hopefully start working on next year. And since that’s getting closer and closer every day and SP still have a lot to work on when it comes to the EP, we might soon be expecting some updates on the recording session, name of the EP, perhaps even the tracklist.
