Sasha Sathya is an Argentine and Arab descent transgender artist, MC, songwriter, and music producer, from Barrio Los Vascos in Merlo, in the western area of Greater Buenos Aires, currently based in Mexico City. She began her solo music career in 2013, emerging from Buenos Aires’ underground transfeminist cultural scene, and is considered a pioneer in transgender visibility within Latin American urban music[1]. Alongside her solo career, she collaborated and participated as a guest musician and guitarist in other acts such as Las Grasas Trans, Sara Hebe and Marina Fages and touring in countries such as Uruguay, España, Portugal, México y Perú.[2][3]
Career
Sasha was raised in Parque San Martin town, Merlo and started to learn guitar at 11 after watching her grandfather play, a guitarist from San Luis province. Her first experience playing in a band was at 13. After participating of several bands as guitarist, bassist and drummer, she decided to start a solo career in 2013 uploading songs to social media, which resonated in the LGBTIQ+ activism community in Buenos Aires.
In 2014 she started to do play gigs as a solo artist and also joined a femenist cumbia band called Las Conchudas, who gave birth to a new wave of feminist cumbia groups in Latin America. In 2015, she released her debut single "Wacha" through social media and started to collaborate as a featured member in Las Grasas Trans, with whom recorded their debut "Pandemia Lésbica" in 2017, produced by Lucy Patané [4]. Also from 2016 to 2017 she played in Marina Fages & Chicas de Humo [5], a project of visual artist and musician Marina Fages featuring Lu Martinez on bass y Lucy Patané on drums, with whom released and homonimous EP in 2017. She also was featured in the closing tour show of the Mototour that the duo Marina Fages and Fernando Samalea did in 2017 [6][7][8]. After the release of "La Dealer" -with a significant attention in social media- in October she finally dropped her debut full lenght "ReBeba MiXXXtape" in Marzo 2019[9]. The album was entirely produced by herself, during 2015 until 2018, and mixed and mastered along with engineer and legendary Klauss's group member Pablo Gil in Estudio Laboratorio Siesta del Fauno [10]. Also during the same year, she made a feature with Sara Hebe: the song :•: A.C.A.B [11] wich obtained an international and unexpected impact . She also is featured in the Marilina Jimenez's documentary Una Banda de Chicas[12] in 2019 and "Amplificadas" another documentary directed by Sonia Bertotti and Verónica Faccini [13].
She released her second studio album “L4 N1374 D3 L4 51RV13N74” or “La nieta de la sirvienta" in March 2021 also recorded and produced by herself and mastered by Pablo Gil.
After being featured in several festivals such as Buenos Aires Trap, she was included in the first Primavera Sound Buenos Aires lineup in 2022[14]
