Saint Agnes, Satsangi and The Hungry Ghosts
Ok, let's make no bones about this, we're gonna rock your socks off!
Saint Agnes
Saint Agnes combine the brooding intensity of Nick Cave dueting with Lana Del Ray on a murder ballad with unhinged, blues rock n roll reminiscent of Jack White/Alison Mosshart at their deadliest: a soundtrack fit for a Tarantino Western.
Co-fronted by singer/guitarist/organist Kitty Austen and singer/guitarist Jon Tufnell, Saint Agnes
released two singles via Energy Snake Records (Vuvuvultures, RIDDLES) They had a successful tour this summer with Bad for Lazarus, played Secret Garden Party and, working from their vast wealth of demos, heading into the studio to record their next release. The band's booking agent Interstellar Overdrive (The Dandy Warhols, The Warlocks, The Black Ryder) are lining up dates to support the forthcoming release.
QUOTES
"Saint Agnes make raw yet accessible, blues driven psychish rock. A rock act to watch in 2015."
Fred Perry Subculture
"The pair's raw chemistry proves as potent as ever present as they dish out a grinding splurge of defiant rock'n'roll graffiti"
Q Magazine
"A stomping, snarling piece of psych rock, there's an electricity running through the track, an indefinable chemistry which draws on the spirit of Jim Morrison"
Clash Magazine
"Saint Agnes live in London, and make a glorious, sleazy racket which starts out like the theme from the Old Grey Whistle Test and ends up altogether more stompy"
Classic Rock Magazine
Psych-rock four-piece Saint Agnes have created a unique cinematic sound and a rock 'n' roll Gothic image to match.
The Telegraph
This is Tarantino/Lynch style, warped, twisted psychedelic, Western inspired music that at moment rocks hard, heavy and Southern, and then the next drifts off into the desert, dazed by the scorching sun, dehydration, hallucinations and talking snakes territory.
Louder Than War
Satsangi
We're thrilled to welcome back these glorious rockers, who have a unique Indian psychedelic style to their music, and will be showcasing their new album 'Rock n Roll Wallah, which is released in October!

The Hungry Ghosts are from Birmingham. They make garage blues and trash folk, music from the other side of the fence.
This is how The Hungry Ghosts have been described
"Local heroes The Hungry Ghosts took things deep into swampy and dark electric beatnik territory, all Bringing It All Back Home-era electric Bob Dylan meets White Stripes southern discomfort Americana. Ecstatically loud and swaggering, with lyrical content that would stand brooding comfortably on its own on the printed page, this was heady stuff. Ones to seriously watch. Boot lace ties and all."
- DB Schenker, Louder Than War
