Kulture by Satsang
Satsang's third full-length studio album Kulture features eleven new songs that display the band's diversity, depth, and evolution of their sound; a unique blend of soul, folk-rock, and hip-hop. Continually displaying their relevant nature in an era of cultural discontent, Satsang connects with its audience through the uplifting lyrics and conscious message found in their songs.
Lead singer/songwriter Drew McManus emerges as a pacesetter and a leader in the conscious music movement through his hip-hop/punk rock work ethic along with the support of his peers. Says McManus, "The essence of this record was to breakdown and sift through the current state of our Country, and I suppose, my life. It is by far the strangest of times we have seen in a long while. I think the key and common denominator is celebrating righteousness rather than basking in the darkness. I really tried to capture that in this record. Conscious commentary that you can dance to.”
Kulture is self-produced by McManus alongside multi-instrumentalist Karl Roth who also engineered and recorded the album. The album weaves its way from the socio-political commentary of “We’ll Stand” and “Resistance” to the foundations of home and family found in “Me & You” and the life-lesson anthem “I’ll Be There”. The album concludes with the songs “So Far” and “This Is War”, expressing the affirmation that work and persistence is the key to all success. McManus sums up these themes saying, “Whether as a nation or as a sentient person navigating the perils and joys of life...all of these things are at the heart and soul of Kulture.”
