Summary
Satsang owns every master he has ever recorded, and building a career independent enough to keep it that way cost him more than any label deal would have paid. Drew came up through an abusive house, psychedelics at thirteen, addiction and sobriety, then spent every dollar he had on a trip to Nepal instead of the reliable car everyone was waiting for. The band took its name from a stranger's handwritten note outside a Kathmandu ashram. This one lives where ownership meets art — the predatory arithmetic of the record business, and his refusal to let AI near the part of being human that music exists for. What he aimed it all at is smaller and harder than a sold-out room: a son who is proud of him, and the kind of life that leaves people lining up for ten more minutes at the end of it.
