PHOTOS: Simple Plan start shooting new music video

by Dominika | Aug 16th, 2015 | no comments

All the members of Simple Plan got back to Canada on Friday to get ready to film a brand new music video in Toronto on the weekend. The first three pictures the guys posted from the set of the music video gave us a few more information on this shoot. Firstly, the band is filming on the beach and secondly, they decided to use the experience of their old friend Mark Staubach as a director again – you may recall him directing a few of Simple Plan’s music videos on GYHO (e.g. Astronaut, Summer Paradise or Can’t Keep My Hands Off You).

While the first music video from Simple Plan’s upcoming fifth studio album – for the song “Boom” – is currently heading to the finish line, the band is already setting up for shooting another video!

According to both Jeff’s and Pierre’s recent updates on Instagram, the band will be filming their next music video in Toronto, Canada, before they leave for the European tour. Since their first show is next Wednesday, on August 19th in Hungary, Simple Plan must be filming the music videos in the next 3 days.

It is however yet unknown which song they decided to film the second music video for.

Simple Plan rock the Toronto stop of FIFA Trophy Tour

by Dominika | May 1st, 2015 | no comments

Yesterday, it was a pretty big day for Simple Plan, as they were back in Toronto, at the FIFA Trophy Tour stop in this city. From the early morning, Jeff and Chuck spent a couple of hours giving interviews to local TV stations, such as BT Toronto, CP24 Breakfast, 680 News or ET Canada and later that day the whole band was ready to rock the stage.

And while the guys spoke mostly about their feelings about football and the upcoming concert in the interviews, the interview for ET Canada also included some more interesting facts. Firstly, Chuck mentioned that the band should be done with the album “hopefully by June 6th.” Now, that is a very interesting piece of information, mostly because of that specific date. If you’re not aware, June 6th is also the day that the FIFA Women’s World Cup, which Simple Plan have been supporting for the past week will kick off and right before the opening match between China and Canada, there will be an opening ceremony…. Make of that what you will. Nothing regarding SP’s involvement in that event has been confirmed yet. Let’s wait and see if this theory is correct.

The other piece of information that came from this interview was the fact that Chuck opened up about his personal life and for the first time finally confirmed that he and his wife Jacquelin are indeed expecting their first child very soon. Congratulations, Chuck!

In the gallery, you can now check out pictures from Chuck’s and Jeff’s interviews from the morning and then also from the backstage area of the FIFA Trophy Tour, where the members of Simple Plan had a lot of fun:

Here, you can watch the interview for CP24 Breakfast with Chuck and Jeff:

And then finally in the evening, the people of Toronto were in for a treat in the form of a free Simple Plan concert in the Much parking lot. Despite rumors started by the band itself, Simple Plan played a regular “festival setlist”, which means a shortened version of their regular headlining show setlist, which was filled with their biggest hits, including Shut Up, Jump, Can’t Keep My Hands Off You, Jet Lag (feat. Andee), Summer Paradise, Welcome To My Life, Addicted or Perfect. But the band did not play any new songs from their upcoming record.

Below, you can have a look at some of the first pictures from this show:

Firstly, this Friday, Simple Plan will be back in Canada to perform in the city of Moncton at the celebrations of the 125th anniversary of this city, which are tied with the Coca Cola FIFA Women’s World Cup trophy tour. The boys revealed on Twitter today that they “have something up their sleeves”, which is why if you can make it to Moncton, you should definitely be there! In fact, I believe you could already put two and two together for this one ;)

Secondly, Simple Plan also announced that in just a week, on April 30th, the band will be performing at another stop of the Coca Cola FIFA Women’s World Cup trophy tour, this time for a free show in Toronto at Much from 7:30pm! Check out the details below:
