Simple Plan Documentary Coming to Prime Video in July
Prime Video has revealed the premiere date, trailer, and key art for Simple Plan: The Kids in the Crowd, an intimate documentary that captures the remarkable 25-year journey of Canadian punk rock fan favorites, Simple Plan.
The documentary launches July 8 on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
“We’re thrilled to share this first look at our documentary. The film captures our journey, struggles, and most memorable moments together. Creating it has been deeply meaningful, and sharing our story is the perfect way to celebrate our 25th anniversary,” said the band.
“The Kids in the Crowd is about dreaming big and perseverance. It’s a story of friendship, brotherhood, and music’s transformative power. Our hope is that it encourages people to believe in themselves and inspires a new generation of kids to find their passion, follow their hearts, and maybe even start a band in their own garage or basement…just like we did!”
As a companion to the documentary, available now, Amazon Music is offering fans an exclusive early demo version of “I’m Just A Kid” from the album No Pads, No Helmets… Just Balls. The full soundtrack will be released alongside the documentary on July 8.
