FOR RELEASE MAY 22, 2026 — Australian husband and wife rock duo JSP have released “Don’t Attack Me” to radio, the latest single from their debut album No More. The hard rock heavy-hitter follows the top-25 charting success of the song “No More (featuring Kevin Young).” The single release is accompanied by a music video featuring live footage from JSP’s album release concert, which you can watch below.





“Don’t Attack Me” - JSP (Official Music Video)

Written by James and Sarah Petterson and produced by Josiah Prince, “Don’t Attack Me” continues to put JSP through their paces as a cinematic hard rock force to be reckoned with. The driving hard rock anthem rides the conviction of the lyrics as it propels its way through the build-up of frustration on the way to catharsis.

“For many years, we experienced words that cut deeply: criticism, judgment, accusation and condemnation spoken in Christian environments that should have been safe,” explains James Petterson. “Often, when you are already carrying hurt, trauma, disappointment or self-doubt, words spoken over you can reinforce the lies you already believe about yourself. Lies that say you are not good enough, that your feelings don’t matter, that somehow what happened to you was your fault.”

The themes of the song connect back deeply to the album as a whole, which explores different kinds of abuse while assuring listeners that they are not at fault for the harmful choices of others. That’s a theme that came out on the triumphant “No More.”

James continues, “‘Don’t Attack Me’ is not about refusing accountability or reacting to criticism. It’s about challenging the culture within Christianity where attacking, shaming and tearing people down has sometimes become normalized whilst still claiming to represent Jesus. It’s asking the question: how can we worship God with our mouths, yet use the same mouth to destroy people made in His image?”

The song draws heavily from the Bible passage James 3:9-10: “With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be.”

“Don’t Attack Me,” like the rest of the album it comes from, was recorded in Nashville with Disciple’s Josiah Prince. The track carries all of the maturity of James and Sarah Petterson’s many years of experience in a variety of rock bands, honed to maximum impact by Josiah’s expert production. The angst expressed through riffs and vocals ultimately carries with it a decision to set healthy boundaries and stand up for a vision of Christlike community as it should be.

“Underneath the heaviness of the song is also conviction. Conviction for ourselves as much as anyone else. To speak life. To speak healing. To speak truth with grace. Because you never truly know the battles someone else is facing or how deeply your words can affect them,” James offers in conclusion. “‘Don’t Attack Me’ is ultimately a challenge to all of us — what kind of water are we pouring out into the lives of others?”

The song is going for adds at rock radio now. For more from this heavy-hitting duo, follow them on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube or their website.

About JSP

James and Sarah Petterson are making the kind of poignant rock music that can only exist when the creators possess resilience forged through surviving stories of trauma— and finding grace in the margins.

The Pettersons, known collectively as JSP, hail from Australia. Both cut their musical teeth playing in Christian bands that performed across Australia, Southeast Asia, the Pacific and the United States. For their debut album as JSP, the couple collaborated with Josiah Prince of Disciple to create towering synth-strung faith-based rock infused with immense, cathartic authenticity, unflinchingly willing to enter the deepest places of pain in order to find healing.
