POP. ROCK. URBAN. DANCE. A new mantra befitting the style and substance of Saturn. Writing, composing, and producing all his own songs, he's a recipe for Alternative Urban Pop - "Lightly fold Prince with Depeche Mode, add a couple of dashes of Bowie and sprinkle around the edges with gay hip hop, pop in your CD player and out your speakers comes Saturn!"
When Saturn was five, if you awoke early enough on a Sunday morning, you'd catch him on the front porch, his tiny feet buried in his grandmother's high heels, her Sunday hat falling lopsided on his head, belting out his favorite gospel hymns at the top of his lungs.
Fast forward twenty years... He's lost the heels and the hat, but he's still singing his heart out ... though maybe not quite like Mahalia Jackson..
Renowned award – winning musician and editor Robert Urban once said of Saturn, "To experience this handsome rising star croon, rap, dance, vogue, charm and effervesce his way through a live concert is to witness perhaps the hardest-working gay man in show biz."
Saturn's 2002 debut album, "The Virgin Poet," received enthusiastic praise for its "highly theatrical" and "emotionally raw" content, but Saturn turned up the heat in 2005 with "Deviant." Baltimore Gay Life said of "Deviant", "...his blunt lyrical seduction is as refreshing as the raw yet refined production of this release [that] oozes with raw sexual energy and rhythms that are dark and hypnotic." Mark Lush of MidwestBands wrote of "Deviant", " It has more artistic merit than 90% of the music you will hear this year..."
In both 2003 and 2005, Saturn was featured prominently on the internationally syndicated radio show "This Way Out". WCH Radio called Saturn one of its "top 25 independent artists of 2003".
Saturn is currently on rotation on an evergrowing list of stations, including Sirius OUTQ, WCH Radio, Stonewall Society and KPFT 90.1 FM, Houston TX. Saturn's song "Saint" was voted by listeners as one of the top OUT songs of 2005 on Sirius OutQ.
