Bio
The sound of Satsangi has been described as blending rock 'n' roll, new wave and punk riffs to tripped out jazz & psych....."Iodine reminds me a bit of Sonic Youth but with infinitely better singing with tough sax break that made me think of X-Ray Spex. The whole thing sounds nervy, dislocated and very tense - just the way I like it." - Steve C-Sonic, Asian Dub Foundation. Satsangi gig throughout the UK, with supports including Fields, The Kills, & The Primtives. Their videos are broadcast globally on MTV networks. -
