NICKELBACK KEEPS ROLLIN’

Love 'Em or Hate 'Em- Nickelback has stayed relevant throughout the years by different means; from the memes they’ve been associated with, to the use of some of their older ‘hits’ on TikTok and more.

“Well, it’s a little-known fact that Nickelback predates the Internet. We’ve seen the whole rise of technology since we began,” said Mike Kroeger in an interview with ABC15. “It is fun, the social media element is really changing things up, and I really think that honestly its causing our audiences to skew younger.”

Ryan Peake agrees, and even finds it flattering that different generations can enjoy their music still to this day.

“No, it’s great, that’s something that… it makes us very happy that when we go to the show there’s this wide demographic of people coming to see us,” said Peake. “There’s the fans that have been there for a long time, there’s some new fans. I think that it’s really flattering that older songs of ours can still be relevant today still and people can still enjoy it,” he added.

The band is more than ready to hit the stage in the Valley after the pandemic’s previous halt on live entertainment.

“It’s been great, we’ve seen a real appetite for wanting to go out to shows, and kind of experience all the live music again which is fantastic because we were cut off for a bit. I didn’t even know if we were going to come back. Who knows how this is going to go. So, it’s great to be around everywhere and we’ve got lots of fans down here in Arizona and across the states,” said Peake.

Phoenix is the 15th stop on Nickelback's Get Rollin' Tour.
