Sum 41 (Deryck Whibley)

This week, we sat down with Deryck Whibley, the lead singer, songwriter, and producer of the band Sum 41. I have been listening to Sum 41 since I was 12 years old and I am incredibly grateful to have been able to sit down with Deryck and have this conversation. We spoke about the rockstar mentality, the early days of the band, their latest record Order In Decline, Deryck’s journey to sobriety, and more.
