DESCRIPTION:\nEine Veranstaltung der Reihe Social Distortion - Summer 2026\
 n\nThe enduring L.A. punk band Social Distortion has overcome numerous per
 sonnel shifts\, the demise of the Los Angeles hardcore scene that spawned 
 them\, and the heroin addiction of singer/guitarist/bandleader Mike Ness t
 o achieve a measure mainstream acceptance for their rootsy\, hard-hitting 
 punk without compromise. Inspired by the fertile L.A. punk scene\, Ness fo
 rmed the group in 1978 with drummer Casey Royer and brothers Frank (bass) 
 and Rikk agnew (guitar). When the brothers left to join The Adolescents\, 
 Ness' schoolmate Dennis Danell joined on bass\; the next few years saw a r
 evolving-door membership. When the group finally recorded its debut album\
 , Mommy's Little Monster in 1983\, the band consisted of Ness\, Danell (no
 w on guitar)\, bassist Brent Liles\, and drummer Derek O'Brien. Their musi
 c was often described as a punk version of The Rolling Stones\, and "Anoth
 er State of Mind" was one of the few punk videos to air on MTV in 1984. Ho
 wever\, the band took four years to record a follow-up\, as Ness descended
  into heroin addiction and self-consciously rebellious behavior. Liles and
  O'Brien left\, and Ness\, after straightening himself out\, finally regro
 uped in 1988 with John Maurer on bass and Chris Reece on drums. This lineu
 p recorded Prison Bound\, a mature album broadening Social Distortion's ro
 ots rock influences with a country feel. Their self-titled 1990 effort inc
 luded a cover of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" and returned the group to MT
 V via "Ball and Chain." Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell became their mos
 t popular album to date\, producing a minor radio hit in "Bad Luck" and ke
 eping with their now-established blend of punk\, blues\, country\, and roc
 kabilly. Social Distortion took an extended hiatus following the release o
 f Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell\, returning in 1996 with White Light\,
  White Heat\, White Trash\, which proved to be a moderate hit on MTV and m
 odern-rock radio\; former Black Flag and D.O.A. drummer Chuck Biscuits mad
 e his debut on the album\, following the departure of Reece. Live at the R
 oxy followed in 1998\, Ness and a year later issued a pair of solo albums\
 , Cheating at Solitaire and the covers collection Under the Influences. Da
 nell died February 29\, 2000 of an apparent brain aneurysm\; the guitarist
  was just 38-years-old. In the fall of 2000\, Jonny Wickersham signed on a
 s the group's new guitarist\, and Charlie Quintana took over on drums from
  the often busy Biscuits. After extensive touring\, the band went back int
 o the studio in 2004 to record Sex\, Love and Rock 'n' Roll. Another six y
 ears passed before Social D returned to recording. Produced by Mike Ness h
 imself\, 2011's glossy-but-muscular Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes featured
  a new lineup\, with bassist Brent Harding and the son of Los Lobos' David
  Hidalgo\, drummer David Hidalgo Jr. joining Wickersham and Ness. ~ Steve
