Middle Sattre (SAT-tree) is an Austin-based experimental folk band. Originating in Salt Lake City as solo project fronted by Hunter Prueger, Middle Sattre began as a way to deal with internalized homophobia and religious repression as a result of growing up within the strictures of the Mormon church. With a background in noise music, Prueger has a penchant for inventive instrumentation. This narrative of frustration and reconciliation comes in the form of rattling acoustic guitars draped with chains, and explosions of banjo strings struck with fidget spinners. Snares and velcro get repurposed as guitar accessories.
