Supagroup is a rock and roll band from New Orleans, Louisiana. They were formed in the mid-1990s by brothers Chris Lee and Benji Lee from Anchorage, Alaska. Both were students at Tulane University and started playing together as SAP or Shit Ass Punks. Previously, Chris had played bass in New Orleans’s sludge rock band, Critical Dump. Unlike their name suggests, Supagroup is not a supergroup, as none of its members have ever reached a celebrity status. However, the Lee brothers claim to be distantly related to the martial arts legend Bruce Lee. Because of this, Supagroup’s albums have had martial arts imagery and Supagroup has used the slogan “Kung Fu Rock n’ Roll.”

The group has enjoyed some success touring around the nation. Although the band has not reached popularity, their single “What’s Your Problem?” has had airtime on the local New Orleans New Rock station 106.7 The End KKND. Most reviews of the band in the press are quite positive. In 2004, the band toured with Alice Cooper, opening for his shows. During the shows Supagroup received a standing ovation, something Alice Cooper claims hasn’t happened since Guns N’ Roses opened for him. The band commonly calls their followers supagroupies.

The current lineup has Chris Lee singing and playing rhythm guitar, Benji Lee playing lead guitar, Leif Robinson Swift playing bass guitar, and Michael Brueggen playing drums and percussion.
