More info about Satellite79
Satellite79 was formed in the wake of the breakup of Concussion Girl in 2012. Core members Alec and Kevin have been at the heart of the band ever since, though some others have come and gone over the years.
The current line-up has been in place for the last two years with phenomenal lead vocalist Robin Finch providing a new and exciting dimension to the band, as well as the recent addition of talented young drummer, Adrian Booysen.
Since the release of the first album in 2016 the band has been gigging regularly, playing venues such as the legendary Radium Beerhall, Smuggler’s, Tanz Café, The Clubhouse Grill, Rumours, Rusty Hook and numerous outdoor festivals.
Their brand new album is preceded by the first single ‘Taken’, a song that is already climbing the charts on Darren Scott’s Mix FM Top 40 currently at number 18. The album was co-produced by the band and legendary guitarist and producer Kevin Leicher, best known for his work with Josie Field and Arno Carstens.
The music video was shot in Johannesburg and directed by Kevin Botha’s son James Botha and edited by lead singer Robin.
“Taken” is available to stream / download on all major platforms. Stream / download it HERE.
