SOCIAL DISTORTION ANNOUNCE NEW LIVE DATES

January 16, 2012 – Los Angeles, CA - Beloved influential Southern California rock ‘n’ roll band Social Distortion have just announced a series of North American live dates in further support of their new hit album Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes. Beginning in Portland on April 10th the band will be performing shows with Texas rockers The Toadies , Canadian singer-songwriter Lindi Ortega, and dates in Texas with rising punk outfit Riverboat Gamblers. Tickets go on sale for these shows Friday January 20th at 10AM local time. This tour follows dates with acclaimed English troubadour Frank Turner and his band The Sleeping Souls and UK punk rockers Sharks.

Social Distortion formed in the late seventies in the working class Southern California suburb of Fullerton. The hard living band has pioneered a reinvigorated and heartfelt rock ‘n’ roll style merging outlaw country, classic punk rock and swaggering blues. It is a sound that has only flourished, with the band’s new album proving their highest charting so far.
