SATCH (UK)

With performances at Glastonbury, Reeperbahn, The Great Escape, and the BBC under his belt,  Joshua ‘Satch’ Satchell, is a rare phenomena – an intrinsic natural talent, combined with compelling charisma and razor-sharp drive; a fusion which makes this artist a formidable force. 

 On the surface, Satch’s story reads like a carbon copy of most other musically talented souls. On paper, all was well, but beneath the surface, struggles were bubbling. Born as a boy within a girl’s body, Satch’s inner battles became apparent very early on. As he moved through school, his desperation to find his ‘normal’, saw grades begin to suffer until eventually he was kicked out of school. He needed to find a way to fly-free from society norms and step into his own reality. In Satch’s own words, ‘Looking back it felt as though it was like running a marathon before the start line.’ The turning point came when Satch heard ‘John Mayer – Waiting on the World to Change’ on a TV show, triggering the realisation that he too could maybe connect with people in that way. A distinct vocal talent and with the gift to write original compelling songs – he had found his voice. Now backed by next-level musicians, angelic harmonies and an unforgettable live show, Satch leaves you simultaneously satiated and craving more.
