Artist
Ninja Sex Party (often abbreviated as NSP) is an American musical comedy rock duo consisting of singer Dan Avidan and keyboardist Brian Wecht. They formed in 2009 in New York City and are based in Los Angeles. They are also part of the musical trio Starbomb with collaborator Arin Hanson. The group’s work primarily consists of rock and synth-pop-oriented comedic songs, often addressing themes such as sex, romance, and fantasy. Avidan and Wecht perform as the characters Danny Sexbang and Ninja Brian. Danny Sexbang is portrayed as an exaggerated, hypersexual and often unsuccessful persona, while Ninja Brian is depicted as a silent and violent ninja. The characters form the central narrative element of the band’s music and videos. The duo has released multiple studio albums, including both original material and cover recordings, as well as a remix album, a live album, and a compilation. In addition, they have released several albums as part of Starbomb. Their cover album series "Under the Covers", which began in 2016, marked a shift toward non-comedic performances, featuring interpretations of songs from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. In their early work, Wecht acted as producer and performed most of the instrumentation. From 2015 onward, the duo collaborated with producers including Jim Arsenault and Jim Roach, as well as the band TWRP, which became their backing band for studio recordings and live performances. Both Avidan and Wecht have also appeared in TWRP’s releases. Since
