About this listen

Formed when they were just thirteen years old by lead vocalist and guitarist Pierre Bouvier and Drummer Chuck Comeau in 1993 - it’s hard to believe that just 8 short years later Simple Plan would be signed by Major Label Atlantic Records in late 2001 - and by early 2002, their first single - the aptly named ‘I’m Just A Kid’ would make huge waves on both Canadian and American radio - fitting in perfectly with the sound of the Holy Trinity of Pop Punk: Blink 182, Sum 41, and Good Charlotte.
After the success and exposure of I’m Just A Kid, Simple Plan was in pole position to become Canada’s new pop-punk sweethearts. Pop Punk was evolving, you see; the band’s stock was high, and it was a case of staying relevant, or being left behind.
This is the story of Simple Plan's Welcome to My Life - as told to Ruby Carr by Simple Plan's own Chuck Comeau!
