Neo Soul from Sachee

Amsterdam-based Sachee is a collective of talented musicians formed at the CVA pop school at bass player Hudson Knott’s entrance exam. Alongside Knott is rapper Hessel Du Mark, singers Kody Chambers and Helena Casella, Tallulah Rose on saxophone and vocals, guitarists NILLY and Ronny DeCarlo, Max Sergeant on drums and keyboardist Julian Bohn.

Originally calling themselves the ‘Versace Boys’ as a joke, ultimately the nickname stuck and they decided to work under the Sachee name. Combining to create a smooth blend of neo soul and future R&B, Sachee channels the sounds of artists such as Kanye West, Anderson .Paak, A Tribe Called Quest and Childish Gambino.

Making their introduction and unveiling their sound, they bring us their debut single titled “Django/Brando”. Laying down a grooving hip hop backdrop full of punching beats and a colourful arrangement of organic and electronic instrumentation, with their first offering, Sachee shares a shimmering sound to make an explosive sonic entrance.

Trading rapped bars and smooth vocal lines, on “Django/Brando” the nine-piece outfit delivers a stunning debut track that serves to showcase their musical talent and build excitement for their next move.

Commenting on the single, lead singer Kody Chambers shares, “Django/Brando is about being uncompromising in the manifestation of one’s vision, as both an artist and a person! Who, in popular culture, represents unflinching self determination better than Jamie Foxx’s Django or Marlon Brando’s Don Corleone? Instead of taking creative orders from corporate powerhouses, Sachee simply executes, and leaves the industry asking: ‘WHAT’S NEXT?’”
