Union 13 is a hardcore punk band from East Los Angeles, California, USA who have, to date, released four full length albums – three on Epitaph Records and one on Disaster Records. Their music is fast and furious – incorporating elements of their Hispanic-American upbringing into the music as well as occasionally singing the odd song on all their albums in Spanish. Pre-recording history The band had made a name for themselves by playing backyard parties in their East Los Angeles locality until one day, Brett Gurewitz, owner of the Epitaph Records label, turned up at one of their performances and persuaded them to record a demo at his Westbeach Recorders studio in Hollywood. Rancid duo, Tim Armstrong and Lars Frederiksen, were suitably impressed with the demo and were keen to produce the band's first album. They duly entered the studio and officially signed to Epitaph Records.
