Seminary Villains started in 2011 by B.J. Rust (Troops) and Russ Kramer (Jack of All Trades, Avenue) on Seminary Road in Alton, IL. After a few setbacks and personnel changes, the duo tapped James Anderson (Sifasic, Elbow Through Hammer) to play bass and Nathan Wanger (Stimulus Package, Miss Lead) to play drums.

With the new line-up the band has not looked back, releasing the self titled debut album “Seminary Villains” and playing headlining shows in Alton IL and opening for national touring acts in St. Louis MO in support of its release. 
Based on the foundation of Rock, Punk and Metal, Seminary Villains continues to build on their unique rock and roll sound, drawing from many different musical influences, namely, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, Misfits, Black Flag, Metallica, Fu Manchu, Everclear, Nirvana and Pantera.

Kramer, on describing the Seminary Villains sound, said ” It’s a very dynamic band, sometimes it takes a hard-rock back bone with a punk face and sometimes it’s a punk back beat with some metal overtones. There are a lot of driving guitar riffs that weave in and out of Nathan’s beats. We try to write songs from the everyday experiences and let downs that everyone can relate to. “

In 2013, Seminary Villains were tapped to play the Exposed Music Festival’s “Wintour”, hosted by Jennifer “Jenncity” Arroyo of Kittie & Suicide City and also to open for Pro Skater and Viva La Bam star Bam Margera’s touring band “Fuckface Unstoppable.” Seminary Villains are already writing new material for a follow LP and are actively booking shows through the end of 2013.

My main influences are Vangelis, Jarre, Tangerine Dream, New Musik, Ulrich Schnauss, Hans Zimmer, James Horner, Ennio Morricone, Larry Fast to name but a few.

You, Me and Dougie is an American Acoustic Rock band currently performing in Saint Louis, Missouri.  The group is made up of Anthony Doria (lead vocals/acoustic guitar), Roy Butler (bass guitar) and Brian Pincus (Drums.)
