“If you're yet to experience the sensation that is the swirling hurricane of unmitigated soul put forth by Saskwatch, then you've only got yourself to blame.”

(Beat Magazine)

Saskwatch is a nine-piece Soul / R&B band from Melbourne, Australia.

Continuing an enormous 2012 to date, with appearances at Golden Plains & Falls Festivals, supports for Earth, Wind & Fire, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and Maceo Parker, on top of over-flowing residencies at Cherry Bar’s Soul Thursdays; Saskwatch are proud to announce the release of their second single 'Your Love' from their upcoming debut long-player, out this August on Northside // Shock.

'Your Love' is a sweet soul anthem, a sentimental celebration of new love. Featuring singer Nkechi Anele’s dulcet tones once again, It’s infectious shuffled beat and ecstatic horns draw influence from Soul Queen and former Detroit Councilwoman - Martha Reeves.
