Simple Plan have confirmed their fifth album will be released in February to coincide with a world tour.
Taking One For The Team is released on February 19 and the tour begins in Madrid on February 24. The European run includes four dates in England. It’s part of a wider world tour, with additional dates to follow in due course.
The Canadian rockers say: “We have been working on these new songs for almost two years now and we cannot wait to share them with you. We all feel like this is our best album yet and there’s nothing better than knowing that, in a few months, you will be able to hear the final result.
“Today, we’re also really stoked to reveal our album cover as well as the first set of dates of the Taking One For The Team world tour.”
