Founded in Placentia California in 1996, by Dustin ‘D-Loc’ Miller and Steven ‘Saint Dog’ Thronson (R.I.P.), the Kottonmouth Kings pioneered an entirely new genre of music known as “Rip-Hop” – a blend of Old-School Southern California Punk Rock and Mid to Late 90’s Modern Hip-Hop, with notable influences from other genres, such as Classic / Psychadelic Rock, Reggae and Country.

The Kottonmouth Kings were the first band to fully dedicate their music to the Underground Punk, Hip-Hop & Cannabis Counter-Cultures. Leading the front line during a time when the war on cannabis and media censorship were at their peak.

Almost 3 decades later with a catalog over 20 records, with millions sold and downloaded, over 150 million video views, and thousands of live shows across the globe, Kottonmouth Kings has created one of the most dedicated, loyal, and notoriously energetic fan bases the music industry has ever seen.

Under brand new management with a brand new record on it’s way for 2024, produced by the legendary Mike Kumi, Kottonmouth Kings are still ripping up stages coast to coast on the endless highway with legendary status in the music industry.
