The rumours everyone’s been hearing is true as punk rockers Sum 41 will be heading to our Malaysian shores this coming April! Livescape presents another Special Rockawayfest Showcase featuring Sum 41 on 14th of April at KL Live.
Following the cancellation of their debut performance at last year’s Rockaway Festival, Sum 41 is set to please their fans with their upcoming show here. Due to an unfortunate injury sustained by frontman, Deryck Whibley at one of their shows late last year, Sum 41 had to cancel the rest of their tour for the remaining of 2011.
When asked, Rahul Kukreja (Livescape’s director of LIVE events) said, “We are very happy to finally bring Sum 41 to Malaysia. We were all disappointed when they couldn’t make it last year but from what I hear, they have re-vamped their show for this upcoming tour and fans can expect nothing short of intensity from them.”
“Sum 41 is also ending their Screaming Bloody Murder world tour in KL and we hope all their fans come out to support them at this special Rockawayfest Showcase!”
Fans can rejoice as an injury free Sum 41 will be making their way to the country this coming mid-April. The punk rockers are nothing short of being one of the most iconic bands in the music scene since their inception in 1996. Sum 41 currently consists of members Deryck Whibley (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Tom Thacker (lead guitar, backing vocals), Jason McCaslin (bass guitar, backing vocals) and Steve Jocz (drums).
They released their debut album, “All Killer, No Filler” in 2001 and achieved mainstream success with their first single from the album, “Fat Lip”, which reached number-one on the “Billboard Modern Rock Tracks’ chart and remains the band’s most successful single to date:
