About Me


"The Royal Buzz is not gone....It is merely an idea that I do not have the means/members to fully create at this time. Any shows that will be played in the near future will be by myself. Richey is a major part of this, but he is too young to tour for the time being. Therefore the change is necessary."
-Andrew Sexton
The Royal Buzz Ep:
All songs written/played by: Andrew Sexton
Brilliant bassmanship by: Eric "Richey" Leming
"Always slip just to take the note/But don't let your tongue slit your throat"
-You Always Tell Yourself Yes
Drawing upon many different elements of society and musicality as inspiration, Andrew Sexton has come through many stages as a conscious being. From that progression came an artist as diverse as life itself. Coming from rural East Tennessee where, the boredom, frustration, restlessness, and angst of youth are unavoidable. Andrew has channeled these as well as an ear for and history of music into what he has described as "The Royal Buzz".
Born December 28th 1987, Andrew Allison was raised as Andrew Leming from the time his mother (whose maiden name was Sexton) remarried in 1991. Growing up in a very conservative working class family and feeling the restraints of a narrow minded society, he made it his occupation to question. A deep sensitivity towards hardship and a revolutionary perspective towards the powers that be....The belief that none should be under the oppression of war, religion, fear, totalitarianism, or the spectacle.
"Make sure to make your country proud when stepping over seas/
They say they're nasty, they say they're dirty, they say save
those refugees." -No Man is an Island
These ideals lead him to begin writing and playing. The inspiration of great philosophers such as Buddha, Jesus Christ, Camus, Lenin, Nietchze, Jah, Pope, Voltaire and many others came into his life more vivid than the world itself. Bowie, Joe Strummer, Morrissey, Jeff Buckley, Ian Curtis, and Richey James Edwards did quite a number as well.
"They say, you can't bring it back.
The damn has broken the die is cast
But what's that beating in your skin?
Under dirt and water all alive again singin'"
-Entombed
Also the day to day inspiration of his mother Sharon (who was diagnosed with cancer in 2000), his father Don who cares for her and his eight siblings has intertwined the deepest of emotion into the music he creates. He feels he is not only the voice of himself but the voice of all the speechless in the past.

Only 19 minutes long...
Play it over and over again....

"It's great...."
-That one guy.
Then and Now
So I said you gave me the finger in grade school
I'm sorry for any trouble that it put you through
I bet your parents screamed when they found the truth
They're quite the opposite
I haven't seen you in years don't know how's that
Last time was in a pickup bed with a cigarette
We were twelve but you were 19 I guess or so it seems
Then and Now
Are much the same
Wreaking havoc
With their fame
Roxy Sluts and Racy Scams come come back to you
Girls who don't grow up or grow up too fast it's true
That plans of something one will never do
One will always make...
So she is my brother's girl, so where's the line with that
Karma, sweet karma's a bitch I say with a laugh
What to do with lonely except talk to you and hide from him
Talk of sex and troubles to pass the time
He's so scared of waiting tables and pickup lines
But if you ain't got more than that then you wouldn't bother mine
Then and Now
Are much the same
Coming round
Dropping names
Roxy Sluts and Racy Scams come come back to you
Girls who don't grow up or grow up too fast it's true
Dreams of something one can never have
One can never shake...
So you've got yours...
When will I get mine?
When will we find that...
Peace of mind doesn't live here baby...
Then and Now seem so much the same
It seems as if she goes forever but she stays the same.

My Air

Hey my stars
Fade like yours and clouds
Do obscure my dreams
But I awake to find
The same sun hangin in the sky
Just like yesterday
So what's the difference?
You know I haven't found one single thing.
What's the meaning in living on for anything but you?
You're the only thing that remains true to me.

And I don't know how we will end
But I know we'll have a time
Getting there my love
You are all of my air.

Your air is what makes my world go round.
And your air is what makes all my sounds.
Baby and silence is the loudest scream from my soul
Without you.

And I don't know how we will end
But I know we'll have a time
Getting there my love
You are all of my air.

Ma vie, mon amour, ma vie, toujours.

I've found my place in the sun
By a stretch of the imagination sight unseen
I was graspin for you, I was gaspin for your air.

Influences: Sounds you've heard
Some you've not

Sounds Like: Reincarnation

The S.S

Truly everything that comes around does not go around.
I fear they'd love to bury me. I fear they'd love to hear the sound
Of simple-minded conversation filled with handfuls of placation...

They're sailing away
On an endless vacation
Where nothing's better to talk about than the weather and how

The playground creeks turn to swamps,
But you're no different than the flower your child brings home
Or the snake you stomp.
To my mortal wits:
Why does it always seem to me it's murder with formality
Kissing hands and attitude
They say don't be rude about what's killing you
The S.S. and Suburban Solitude.

Cast my silhouette onto the darkest road I've ever known.
Russian Roulette brought uninvited to your quiet home.
Young we are and young we'll stay he used his last breath to say:

I'm trying to put away
A mindless fascination
And regret her into seeing me better than just the voice of temptation.

The playground creeks turn to swamps,
But you're no different than the flower your child brings home
Or the snake you stop.
To my mortal wits:
Why does it always seem to me is someone coming after me
With cuffs in hand and attitude.
They say don't be rude about what's killing you!
THE S.S. AND SUBURBAN SOLITUDE.

Anti-cure and anti-remedy they are comin' strong and steadily.
