Biography
Rock'n'roll is alive and well and it exists in a band called Sex & Patriotism, a 5 peice based out of Lansing, Michigan. Fueled by their love for all things rock, S&P fuses a sexual energy not seen since the hey days of bands like The Stones, Kiss, GNR and Aerosmith with the volatile ideas of patriotism. This culminates into an explosive performance of All American Rock'n'Roll with a vengence.

That's not to say the road to the top has been one big party for Sex & Patriotism, which includes lead vocalist Chri§teele, guitarist/backing vocalist Lon Bennet, guitarist/backing vocalist Rusty Bigger, bass player/backing vocalist, Scotty B., and drummer Josh Williams. The band has made a genuine name for itself through its strong work ethic, unwavering dedication and determination to play as many shows as humanly possible, with as much passion as possible.

It's hard work that's paid off - in a big way. Since forming in 2004, Sex & Patriotism has opened for headline acts such as Silvertide, Drowning Pool, Black Stone Cherry, Sponge, Crud, Revelation Theory and more, rocking stages from small intimate clubs to large theaters and amphlitheatres.

Musically, influences range from The Rolling Stones to Aerosmith, early Def Leppard, Soundgarden, Led Zepplin, GNR, and AC/DC. It's a dynamic sound and energy that is captured on the group's current full-length, "To Die For." As the disc continues receiving excellent reviews, coupled with the band's live shows, international radio and web play, it has created a buzz among fans and industry big-wifs alike.

With songs featured on the movie soundtrack for "True Love" (Four Weird Guys Pro., LLC), the group being chosen as Sound Press/AMG Artists of the Month 2007 from over 100,000 bands and negotiations for representation by Big Noise PR, the same company that represents Christina Aguilera, Chicago and Pattie Rothberg, one thing is certain, Sex & Patriotism are showing no signs of slowing down. They were crowned 2nd place out of 227 bands in the "Fox Rocks Detroit Def Leppard/Styxx" contest in July of 2007. The Fan-voted contest earned them a spot on the Fox 2 news hour.
