Bad Religion and Social Distortion will be in concert at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre on Friday, April 26, 2024.   Special guest The Lovebombs.

Having formed right on the heels of the original explosion, Bad Religion is in an almost singular position in the history of punk.  They led the west coast arm of hardcore’s birth, adding their melodic riffs, zooming harmonies, and viciously verbose lyrical punch to the basic bash of hardcore. The band has long settled into the current lineup.  They are Greg Graffin (vocals), Jay Bentley (bass), Brian Baker (guitarist since ’94), guitarist Mike Dimkich, and drummer Jamie Miller.

Social Distortion’s patented mix of punk, bluesy rock n’ roll and outlaw country – while also stretching the boundaries of their signature sound – is a blend of potent power that appeals to all ages. For many years, they have all but trademarked their sound, a brand of hard rockabilly/punk that’s cut with the melodic, road-tested lyrics of frontman Mike Ness. Their searing guitars and a locomotive rhythm section sound as alive today as they did in ’82, as do Ness’ hard-luck tales of love, loss and lessons learned.  Now in their fifth decade, Ness and Social Distortion have officially achieved one of the most non-punk things possible … they’ve failed to burn out.  And, a release of new music is forthcoming in 2024.
