From Social Distortion frontman Mike Ness

An influences-driven collection of country, rock and bluegrass covers

Includes a retake on the Social Distortion hit "Ball and Chain"

"As lead singer and songwriter of punk mainstays Social Distortion for the past 21 years, Mike Ness always possessed an innate understanding of the connection between punk and country. Social Distortion's music has always been thrashy and twangy, a marriage furthered by Ness' self-destructive past and rockabilly personal style.

"With his second solo album release of 1999 (the first is an album of rockabilly influenced originals, Cheating at Solitaire), Under the Influences showcases Ness' love of roots music with a collection of tunes originally written by legends such as Hank Williams Sr., Marty Robbins, and Carl Perkins. The arrangements include traditional fiddles and autoharps, but it's tempered by buzzy guitars for a nice contemporary mix." — AllMusic
