Formed in 1999, Simple Plan emerged as one of the defining bands of the early 2000s pop-punk movement, blending high-energy rock with emotionally resonant lyrics and anthemic hooks. Fronted by lead vocalist Pierre Bouvier, the band quickly gained international recognition for their relatable songwriting and infectious sound.

In 2002, Simple Plan released their debut album, “No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls,” which helped establish the band’s signature downtrodden lyrics juxtaposed with upbeat music thanks to breakout hits such as “I’d Do Anything,” “Addicted” and the enduring fan favorite “I’m Just a Kid.” The group followed with “Still Not Getting Any…” in 2004, featuring chart-topping singles including “Welcome to My Life” and “Shut Up!,” further solidifying their global popularity. Simple Plan continued their string of successful albums with their self-titled 2008 album, “Get Your Heart One!” in 2011, “Taking one for the Team” in 2016 and “Harder Than It Looks” in 2022, showcasing their enduring appeal and continued connection with fans across generations.

Joining is alt rock group Bowling for Soup. Formed in 1994 in Texas, Bowling for Soup became a standout act in the pop-punk and alternative rock scenes. The band broke into mainstream success with their 2002 album “Drunk Enough to Dance,” which featured the Grammy-nominated hit “Girl All the Bad Guys Want,” helping establish the band’s signature blend of humor and relatable themes. They followed up with “A Hangover You Don’t Deserve” in 2004, delivering one of their most recognizable singles “1985,” which became a Top 40 hit and remains a fan favorite. Celebrated for their energetic and comedic stage presence, Bowling for Soup has built a loyal international following through extensive touring, festival appearances and interactive live performances.

3OH!3 became a breakout act in the late 2000s electro-pop and alternative music scene, blending electronic beats, hip-hop influences and pop-punk energy. The duo rose to mainstream prominence with their 2008 major-label debut, “Want,” which featured the multi-platinum hit “Don’t Trust Me,” propelling the duo onto international charts and establishing their signature high-energy style. The group followed with “Streets of Gold” in 2010, which included the chart-topping collaboration “My First Kiss” featuring Kesha, further cementing their pop-crossover success. Their 2016 release, “Night Sports,” and 2021 release “NEED” highlighted an evolving sound while staying true to their distinctive sound. Thanks in part to their electrifying live performances, 3OH!3 has built a devoted global fan base through extensive touring and major festival appearances. Doors open at 6 p.m.
