Sexart was an American hard rock band that formed in the early 1990's. It is best known for being the band that Jonathan Davis was in, before being found by Korn's guitarists while Sexart was performing in a bar in Bakersfield, California. David DeRoo played bass, Ray "Chaka" Solis and Ryan Shuck played guitar, and Denis Shinn was on drums. Ty Elam joined to jam, and shared vocal duties on the only released Sexart track, "Inside", which featured on the local compilation Cultivation '92.

Elam went on to form the band Videodrone, who were signed to Korn's vanity label Elementree Records. Shuck also retained old ties, joining the band Orgy, who are also signed to Elementree. The remaining members went on to form Juice. David DeRoo left Juice to join Mark Chavez (Jonathan Davis' half brother) in Adema.
Sexart guitarist Ryan Shuck attempted to sue Jonathan Davis when Korn's self-titled debut album featured "Blind", a song Ryan helped Jonathan compose, for which he was not credited.
