   About Social Hero
The Famous
Click the cover to buy our new record, THE FAMOUS, through CDBaby !

(You can hear some more ass kickin' song samples there too!)

Social Hero (est. 1998), a five-piece rock act from New York City, heralds a Renaissance of Rock and Roll.

The story of Social Hero begins with their catalogue of tightly crafted original music, which showcases "a taste for power-pop hooks, crunchy guitars and arty embellishments" (Time Out New York). The band draws influences from a wide range of styles, but the sound of Social Hero is sown mainly from the seeds of classic and modern rock. Fact: Cream and Led Zeppelin had a bastard child of rock that grew up on the early ‘90s alternative explosion - they named it Social Hero.

A high-octane, explosive performance machine - independently fueled and armed with a relentless DIY spirit - Social Hero seeks to take back control of the lost art of rock'n'roll. With their new full length album The Famous in hand, the boys are ready to kick some serious ass, whether they take down any names or not.
