Alice In Chains & Korn Coming To San Diego Co.: Tickets On Sale

CHULA VISTA, CA – Rock on with Alice in Chains during their North American tour. Tickets are on sale now for the upcoming concert dates, and you can catch the band when it joins Korn for a show at North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre in Chula Vista on Sept. 2.

Alice in Chains, originally was formed in Seattle in 1987 by guitarist and vocalist Jerry Cantrell and drummer Sean Kinney, who later recruited bassist Mike Starr and lead vocalist, the late Layne Staley.

Starr was replaced by Mike Inez in 1993. William DuVall joined the band in 2006 as co-lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, replacing Staley, when he died in 2002.

The band took its name from Staley's previous group, the glam metal band Alice N' Chains. Although widely associated with grunge music, the band's sound incorporates heavy metal elements.

Since its formation, Alice in Chains has released six studio albums, three EPs, three live albums, four compilations, two DVDs, 32 music videos and 31 singles. The band is known for its distinctive vocal style, which often included the originally harmonized vocals between Staley and Cantrell (and later Cantrell and DuVall). Cantrell started to sing lead vocals on the 1992 acoustic EP Sap, and his role continued to grow in the following albums, making Alice in Chains a two-vocal band.

The band was one of the most successful music acts of the 1990s, selling more than 30 million records worldwide and more than 14 million records in the U.S. alone, with two No. 1 albums and six Top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 chart.

The band has had 18 Top 10 songs on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, 5 No. 1 hits, and 11 Grammy Award nominations. Their debut album, Facelift, featuring the hit single "Man in the Box," was released in 1990 and was certified double-platinum by the RIAA, selling more than 2 million copies. In 1992, the band's second album, Dirt, was released to critical acclaim and was certified quadruple platinum.

Here’s your chance to enjoy the unique vocals and heavy metal/grunge sounds of this iconic band. Tickets are on sale now!
