Hailing from Los Angeles, CA, Mötley Crüe’s Vince Neil (vocals), Nikki Sixx (bass), Tommy Lee (drums), and Mick Mars (guitars) has commandeered the Rock pantheon for over 40 years and continues to do so with John 5 on guitar. The band has sold over 100 million albums worldwide, garnered seven USA platinum and multi-platinum albums, 22 Top 40 mainstream Rock hits, Six Top 20 Pop singles, three Grammy nominations, five New York Times best-selling books, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and a Netflix hit movie. The quartet has amassed over five billion streams across digital platforms and the band has over eight million followers on social media. Known for their iconic live performances, Mötley Crüe has sold out countless tours around the world in front of millions of fans with groundbreaking production highlights such as Tommy Lee’s drum-rollercoaster and Nikki Sixx’s flame-throwing bass.

The band pioneered the Las Vegas Rock residency with a sold-out run in 2012 and continues to push the limits of live performance. Mötley Crüe’s hit songs such as “Kickstart My Heart” and “Home Sweet Home” are frequently licensed by major brands such as NASCAR, Dodge, Coldwell Banker, Carl’s Jr. and KIA to name a few and their music can be heard on TV hit shows such as Stranger Things and Cobra Kai amongst many others. The band’s biography “The Dirt: Confessions of the World’s Most Notorious Rock Band” became a New York Times best-seller in 2001 and has sold over 1 million copies worldwide. Members of the band have authored four additional New York Times best-selling books since. In 2019 Netflix premiered The Dirt biopic based on the bestselling book which became a global hit movie scoring a 94% positive audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. As a result, Mötley Crüe gained an entire new generation of young fans who discovered the band through the movie and further solidified their iconic status, relevance, and the timelessness of their songwriting.

Mötley Crüe remains a huge global draw 43 years into their career and, in the summer of 2022 co-headlined a sold-out North American stadium tour with Def Leppard. The tour continued around the world in 2023 with legs in Latin America, Europe, Japan and Australia before concluding in Melbourne, Australia in November 2023.
