Nickelback: We don’t follow music trends

Published



NEW YORK — Nickelback has had a number of Top 40 hits over the years, and although today’s pop scene is dominated by dance music, the band doesn’t plan to shift gears to attain past radio success. “We don’t look at what all the popular artists are doing. We’re not chasing Lady Gaga or Katy Perry or any of those guys. They’re doing fabulous doing what they’re doing, and we’re just doing what we do, and that’s it,” lead singer Chad Kroeger said.

“Obviously, there isn’t a person in the world that would say, ‘You know Nickelback is so trendy.’ And we’re not. We don’t care. We really just don’t care.”
