Nickelback is a Canadian rock band formed in Hanna, Alberta by Chad Kroeger, Mike Kroeger, Ryan Peake and Brandon Kroeger. Nickelback's hit single "How You Remind Me" from their third album, Silver Side Up reached the top on the Canadian Singles Chart and the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time, making Nickelback the third Canadian band to accomplish this, the first being The Guess Who with "American Woman", the second being Bachman-Turner Overdrive with "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet".

Since their smash hit "How You Remind Me" in 2001, Nickelback enjoyed major commercial success, but have been mostly critically panned. Nickelback has sold over 14 million albums in the United States and nearly 2 million albums in their native Canada. Nickelback has sold almost 25 million records worldwide.

Nickelback has won nine Juno Awards, an American Music Award, an MTV Video Music Award for Best Video from a Film (Hero), and a World Music Award for World's Best-Selling Rock Artist. Nickelback was also nominated for seven Grammy Awards, four American Music Awards and twelve Juno Awards. On December 4, 2006, Nickelback won three Billboard Music Awards out of five nominations.
