Satsang

On September 21, 2026, Satsang arrives at Circolo Arci Bellezza in Milan. Behind the name is US singer-songwriter Drew McManus, who grew up amid the landscapes of Montana and is drawn to a sound that blends folk, roots rock, soul and touches of reggae and hip‑hop. His songwriting focuses on introspection, the relationship with nature and individual responsibility, with a secular spirituality that runs through the lyrics without heaviness.

The setlist combines acoustic guitars, elastic grooves and near spoken‑word passages, first heard on The Story of You (2016) and then expanded into a more band‑oriented sound with Pyramid(s) (2017). Kulture (2019) and All. Right. Now. (2020) introduce choruses, mid‑tempo rhythms and more American roots colors, while Flowers From The Fray (2022), largely written in the mountains, steers things back toward a more intimate register.

Live, Satsang is a group built around McManus that alternates electric sets and acoustic moments, playing on the dynamics between choral passages and confession. In Milan one can expect a journey through the catalogue: warm‑paced songs, restrained ballads and rhythmic openings that bring together a personal message, social conscience and immediate songwriting designed to work both indoors and outdoors.
