Simple Plan is a Canadian pop-punk band from Québec, Montreal. The band originally started in 1996 with a band named Reset with Chuck and 2 other friends. The band didn’t gain as much popularity as they wanted and Chuck left not long after they released their debut album, no worries, to go to college. Two years later, Chuck met up with Jeff and Seb who were in separate bands at the time, and combined to create Simple Plan. Chuck and Pierre then reacquainted at a Sugar Ray concert and Pierre left Reset to join Simple plan.  David replaced Pierre in Reset but he then left to join Simple Plan six months later.
