The winner of Hard Rock Rising Battle of the Bands was Saints of Saturn! Listen to 97X to hear their new song “Decay” and stay tuned to find out which upcoming 97X show they will open!
SAINTS OF SATURN is a rock n’ roll powerhouse hailing from the Sunshine State of Florida, matching their home state’s heat with their wall-shaking sound and blazing energy. Their influences lie in the legendary swagger of the 1970s and the grit of the 1990s, but their powerful riffs and biting lyrics are a new taste of rock that commands attention from every generation. The band is not a rehash of any one sound or era, but a fiery derivative of every key element to the genre: larger-than-life personality, broad-ranged musicianship, and devilishly catchy sounds
The band first formed as a trio, the product of a local music school uniting high school classmates Cory Bernardi (drums) and Chris Erickson (bass) together with frontman Nik Wilson (lead vocals/guitar). Together, they soared to new heights, touring across the Southeast and opening for legends like Lynyrd Skynyrd and new favorites like Tyler Bryant and the Shakedown.
Now, with a fresh look and a new setlist of songs, SAINTS OF SATURN has recorded a five song EP with prolific producer David Bendeth (Paramore, The Warning, Bring Me the Horizon) split between Peter Frampton’s Nashville studio and New Jersey. A full album will be on the horizon in the near future, but for the SAINTS OF SATURN, the sky is the limit.
