Pierre Bouvier and Chuck Comeau of Simple Plan perform at Meridian Centre on November 13, 2022 in St. Catharines, Ontario

Simple Plan have shared a new version of their song ‘Iconic’ featuring TikTok star Jax – you can listen to it below.

The original rendition of the track features on the Canadian pop-punk band’s sixth and latest studio album, 2022’s ‘Harder Than It Looks’.

Now, the group have teamed up with US singer-songwriter, former American Idol contestant and TikToker Jax for a collaborative take on the tune.

In a statement, Simple Plan frontman Pierre Bouvier praised the artist – who has almost 14million followers on TikTok – for “forging her own path, breaking rules and doing things her own way”.

He added: “It’s been cool to watch her use her platform in such a positive and inspiring way. We couldn’t be happier to be friends and have her on this song.”

Jax added: “I was so, so, so excited when Simple Plan asked me to be part of ‘Iconic’! Pierre brought me up to his home and we had such a fun time cutting my verse and then having dinner with his beautiful family!”

She continued: “I grew up listening to them and was trying my best not to fangirl. The boys are all ‘icons’ and it is a dream come true to be on this song with them!”

Watch the official music video for ‘Iconic (feat. Jax)’ above.

Jax, who this year released the single ‘Cinderella Snapped’, regularly posts clips of herself performing tracks she has written on TikTok. Her bio on the platform reads: “I write songs and tell dad jokes.” Check out her channel here.
