Social Distortion Hit Western Canada on North American Tour

It's been a year since Social Distortion released their latest LP, Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes, and the iconic punks will be continuing to promote the album by touring North America in the coming months.

Following a previously announced outing in the western U.S. with Frank Turner and his backing band the Sleeping Souls, Social Distortion will play more shows around the continent, including a run of four gigs here in Canada. Following a date in Vancouver, Social Distortion will head to the Prairies for appearances in Calgary, Edmonton and Saskatoon.
