Hire: Social Distortion
Social Distortion is an American punk rock band formed in 1978 in Fullerton, California. After more than 45 years of performing, the band continues to tour and record music.
Social Distortion was formed by Mike Ness, and was inspired by the Sex Pistols, many other British punk bands, and rock acts such as the Rolling Stones. Since its inception, the band’s lineup has seen significant turnover, with Ness being the only constant member.

The group rose to fame with their 1990 self-titled third album, which produced their well-known hit singles, “Ball and Chain”, “Story of My Life”, and the cover of Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire” and was certified gold by the RIAA. Many of their later albums, including their second gold record, Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell (1992), were also well-received.
The band has played more than 1400 concerts throughout their career. In 2022, Social Distortion performed at Hellfest with Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Bring Me The Horizon, Whitesnake, Nine Inch Nails, Rise Against, Scorpions, Alice Cooper, Megadeth and others.
On April 7, 2023, Ness and Social Distortion posted to their Instagram pages that pre-production on the band’s next album was complete and that they would begin recording on April 17.
Dubbed by Steven Blush as “the Rolling Stones of hardcore,” Social Distortion is considered one of the best-selling and most influential punk rock bands, with more than three million albums sold worldwide.
Their discography includes seven studio albums, one extended play (EP), two compilation albums, two DVDs and twenty-four singles.
