There is no man more befitting of the title “A Man On A Mission” than Roderick Patterson — better known onstage as Sir Rod. A natural-born humorist, Sir Rod uses music, storytelling, and side-splitting comedy to deliver powerful, uplifting messages that stick. Whether he’s speaking in schools, on stage, or at community events, his performances are a blend of inspiration and entertainment — filled with rhythm, real talk, and big laughs.
Based in Atlanta, GA, Sir Rod is the founder of several impactful organizations including Sounds of Knowledge, a touring company that brings positive messaging to schools through music and humor. He formerly led Diversity Showcase Assemblies, one of the largest school assembly programs in the country, influencing over a million young lives nationwide. A former art director for So So Def Recordings and Georgia Perimeter College, Sir Rod is also a 7x published author, accomplished singer, and dancer with a unique one-man Motown-style show. For Sir Rod, comedy is the bridge, and music is the vehicle — both leading straight to the heart.
