We are extremely excited to announce Sum 41 as the official headliners of the Kerrang! Tour 2016!

In 2012, the pop-punk heroes had to pull out of the tour due to an injury to frontman Deryck Whibley’s back, but we can confirm that the group are back – and stronger than ever before! Not only is this a return for Sum 41 on our shores, but it also sees original guitarist Dave ‘Brown Sound’ Baksh back in the fold after nine years away.

talking to Kerrang!, Deryck Whibley tells us, “

Spirits in the band are so high right now! We’ve been gone for so long, and I’ve been through so much personally, and that’s led us to a place where we’re more excited than ever, and we can’t wait to share that with you guys! It was horrible having to cancel those shows – I hate cancelling anything – and more so because of my stupid back!

After a three-year break, we’re honoured that our first tour back is the Kerrang! Tour in the UK,”

“We’ve been locked away in the studio making the new Sum 41 record, which will be out later in the year [2016].”
