“This is how you remind me…” to buy Nickelback concert tickets, that is!  Nickelback is back with a brand new album and is touring the U.S. once again.  This Canadian rock band has been together since 1995 and rose to fame in the 2000s.  Since then, they have sold more than 50 million albums worldwide.  Since the start, Chad Kroeger has done lead vocals with Mike Kroeger on bass and Ryan Peake on guitar.  The drummer position has fluctuated a bit, though the current drummer has been with the band since 2005 and his name is Daniel Adair. 

Nickelback’s 2011 album Silver Side Up was their breakthrough album, which went six times platinum in the US.  “How You Remind Me” was the best single from the album, as it hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100.  Other great singles from the album included “Too Bad”, “Never Again” and “Woke Up This Morning”.  Chad Kroeger is the real deal, as he writes many of the song lyrics himself.  Fans love this band’s powerful rock anthems and the lyrics have often been said to be very personal to Kroeger himself. 

In the band’s spare time, they try to do a little charity work.  In 2011, they donated $50,000 dollars to the British Columbia’s Children’s Hospital, which specializes in health care for sick children and those with developmental disabilities.  The band also performed for the WWE Tribute to the Troops. 

In September 2011, Nickelback gave the announcement of their newest album to be released entitled “Here and Now”.  The album includes the singles “Bottoms Up” and “When We Stand Together” which they performed live at Ford Field in Detroit.  The album was officially released in November 2011.  Have you heard the latest album?  Many fans are giving it high reviews, and are dying to hear the new songs sung live and in person. 

Nickelback is currently touring with a number of other well known bands and is scheduled to make many stops across the United States and Canada.  If you want to hear your old favorite or brand new songs sung live then be sure to get tickets before they sell out!
