AboutSin Shake Sin
Sin Shake Sin is the political resistance rock project of producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Stacy Hogan.
Much has happened since Sin Shake Sin’s founder Stacy Hogan hit “upload” on his self-released project’s independent debut.
Unsigned, Sin Shake Sin reached No. 5 on Billboard’s Rock Radio Most Added chart in late 2017 with the independent single “Can’t Go To Hell.” The song was added to SiriusXM Octane and named Pick of the Week by both HardDrive with Lou Brutus and The L.A. Lloyd Rock 30 Countdown.
Sin Shake Sin has lived just under the radar while landing music in the Netflix film Little Evil, The Vampire Diaries, WWE Raw and numerous other productions.
Hogan writes, sings, performs, produces and mixes the music. His wider career includes more than fifteen major-label cuts across multiple genres, including work connected to Starset, RED, Brian “Head” Welch of Korn and Pillar, along with Billboard Top 10 hard-rock singles and a production that topped Billboard’s classical chart.
The full-length debut Lunatics and Slaves was followed by The Mess We’ve Made, which brought coverage from Guitar World and Loudwire and an interview on the nationally syndicated Loudwire Nights.
The single “Misinformation” features Grammy Award-winning Pearl Jam drummer Dave Abbruzzese. The result is a bold, instantly recognizable collision of industrial hard rock, old-school Southern blues and confrontational pop hooks.
The sound carries traces of Nirvana, Marilyn Manson, Creedence Clearwater Revival and Nine Inch Nails, while its low, dirty “swamp” character comes from Hogan’s use of eight-string guitar.
The concept is awareness: the power of information against the power of misinformation; refusing to sit quietly while institutions and opportunists take control; confronting complacent ignorance before it becomes permanent.
Before Sin Shake Sin, Hogan fronted Lovers and Liars, signed to Universal Republic. He has worked professionally in studios since his teens and later built a Nashville production, publishing and licensing company.
