Check It Out -- Simple Plan

Simple plan is a highly successful pop punk band created back in 1999. The current members are:

Pierre Bouvier- Lead vocals
Charles Comeau - Drums
Jeff Stinco- Lead guitar
David Desrosiers-Bass, Back vocals
Sebastian Lefebvre AKA Seb- Guitar, Back vocals

The majority of the band were friends in junior high and grew up in Montreal, Canada.

With the PunkStop Music Blog I like to mainly write about pop punk bands with a lot of talent, because the genre "pop punk" is generally associated with not-so-talented bands who play mostly chords and basic music. Simple plan, however, is above this stereotype and plays some very talented music, but still remains to keep the "simplicity" that popular punk bands strive for. Simple plan features catchy, powerful vocals, innovative guitars, an amazing bassist, and solid drum beats. I am a bass player myself, and it's tough to find good pop punk bassists, but David Desrosiers is definitely one of them. He manages to play more than just boring root notes and adds a lot of flavor to the songs they write. He was even in the latest Bassplayer Magazine, check it out!
