It’s been a whirlwind year for Saskwatch!

Fronted by beautiful, vocal powerhouse Nkechi Anele, this 9-piece Melbourne soul band has hit Meredith Music Festival, Australasian World Music Expo, Golden Plains, Fed Square Live last summer and the “cobblestone” streets of AC/DC Lane for an extensive 2012 residency at Cherry Bar just to name a few.

The band also released long-awaited, funked-out debut LP Leave It All Behind and two of the tracks from that tasty jam are featured below.

Having seen Saskwatch perform quite a number of times, I’m pretty damn excited to catch their live set down on sunny Phillip Island over New Years at Pyramid Rock Festival alongside the likes of Tame Impala, 360, The Amity Affliction, Xavier Rudd & many many more!

Stay tuned for a bunch of awesome pics & snap up your tix here if you haven’t already. This is going to be a ripper!
