APV President Mark Gus Scott exclaims, "I find it criminal that not one brand in the vodka market celebrates America. As a Proud Son of the American Legion Pat Tillman Post #117, I could not stand by and allow a destructive element within our society to divide our country any longer!” Scott, who gained worldwide notoriety as a member of the #1 MTV rock group TRIXTER, speaks passionately about his alliance with the American Legion and his hope for unity in the US. “The People of our country possess true American Spirit, as does American Legion Pat Tillman Post #117 Commanders Steve Lackey and Art Jaramillo, American Legion Rider Presidents Don Long and Scot Sobieski, as well as myself. I urge all Americans to join us in celebration to wish a very Happy Birthday to the American Legion with the launch of American Premium Vodka!" The Official American Premium Vodka Launch Party will take place on Saturday, March 19th, 8pm at The American Legion Pat Tillman
Post #117 located at 3230 E. Thunderbird Road, Phoenix, AZ 85032. Admission is FREE – Donations Accepted. APV President Scott will be conducting a Launch Party Tour of American Legion Posts across the country to raise money for veteran charities and in support of his new brand.
American Legion Pat Tillman Post #117 Commander Steve Lackey notes, “American Premium Vodka is an ally in our relentless pursuit of fostering Americanism. The efforts we all make as members of the Legion breed something special throughout our communities and pay special tribute to real American Heroes – Our Veterans!”

remembrance, honor, service, veterans affairs and rehabilitation, children and youth, loyalty, and Americanism.

After rocking the world with MTV hair band TRIXTER for almost three decades, Mark steps out from behind the drums to stand center stage and share something very special. The rock star turned adult contemporary solo artist's latest release, "With You..." is an emotional, passionate and heartfelt ballad the likes of which will never be expected by his ever-growing constituency of fans.
“For the past few years, I have pursued music outside of Rock and Roll in hopes of touching just one person. To be on the receiving end of so much love and support from so many around the world, it has truly touched me! That’s a gift I never expected,” says Scott. I wrote this song just to tell one person how deeply I feel for her. Now I want everyone to hear it.,,”
"With You..." combines an 80's-style power ballad piano riff, symphonic orchestration and powerful melodic hooks all providing a platform for deep emotional poetry that truly moves the soul. This song is Mark's debut as a lead vocalist and listeners will not be ready for the soaring and soulful hook-filled melodies backed by enormous “angelic” background harmonies; definitely a huge surprise coming from one of rock's hardest-hitting drummers.
