SEXSTONE
Members:

Rocking out of Madisonville KY, a new ROCK force is emerging. And it's one to be reckoned with.
That force? SEXSTONE. The band on the tip of peoples tongues, or as one fan puts it:
“...I voted for Sexstone, cause they've got major potential and are busting their asses to get their name out there! How do I know? Everywhere I look I see Sexstone's name! That shows they have the passion for the music and work hard for it. Musician-from-Hell on February 7th 2010” http://polldaddy.com/community/poll/2639373/
And that's just it, the ever growing fan base Sexstone has, is what speaks volumes about their character, passion, & drive to succeed.
“Sexstone is the best. I have meet all of them and they deserve this. i think your a fool if u don't vote for Steve and Sexstone.!!!!!!!!!! Kathie on February 5th 2010”
“Sexstone is what all music should be like...Steve o writes his own music...it all comes from his heart, his soul, and his life....the rest of the band members are amazing as well...they complete each other..I'm not dissing the other band because everybody has an opinion...and mine is SEXSTONE IS THE BEST Tricia on February 24th 2010
That's just a few examples. When Sexstone first hit my desk, I was first issued “Thank You”. This track comes from “The Painful Side of True”. With it's catchy upbeat tempo, easy to relate to lyrics, and straight up Rock feel, what's there not to like?.
From there I heard “The Fall” and found myself humming it, or downright waking up with the song in my head. “Now, I'm lost and I don't know what to do...I'm falling away.. Yeah right into Sexstone's hands.
But it wasn't until we got “Soldier's Song (Wait for me)” that I knew what kind of drive this band has. I mean, when you see a song being E-quested 84 times in January alone, you have to stop and think for a second. DAMN these guys are on point! Listeners want to hear MORE!
I was privileged enough to speak with "Bauer", Bryan, “Wheeler”, and Trent this past Valentine's Day and they were just humble, good hearted, hard working Americans, chasing down a dream.
Now that's something I certainly can relate too!
This has been a hell of a poll. With some honest, open discourse. And for that alone, I am truly grateful.
It is a honor to Nominate SEXSTONE FEBRUARY 2010 INDEPENDENT ARTIST OF THE MONTH!

If someone were to ask what I thought of Chris Walker, I couldn't even honestly describe it as music. That's just too bland of a term.
It's more like composition. Even that doesn't carry enough weight.
Pianos, Guitars, balls out instrumentation that's not flawed by an unmatched singer.
It's music like this that seems to have been a lacking force in the "modern" age. Reminiscent of Stevie Ray Vaughn, mixed with progressive breakdowns and fantastic hooks ands it's simply no wonder that I told Chris personally, "outstanding guitar work! I mean stunning."
Go ahead kids try this at home! I dare you, I double dog dare you. This is the power of knowing how to make your instruments talk, sing, and tell a story all without uttering a solitary syllable.
One last thought... and this one is directed to Activision. THIS is what NEEDS to be in Guitar Hero!
"The Road Ahead" is a great one if Chris Walker is my soundtrack.
