The Sound and the Fury

The Sound and the Fury (tSanF) will bring you swaying between low, gravely croons, and soul tearing howls that pierce through an earthy acoustic landscape drawn from musical styles as broad as western, singer-songwriter, theater, folk, and early metal.

Influences include Glen Hansard, The Lone Bellow, Lincoln Durham, Black Sabbath, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, Shinedown, and more. It’s a broad net that settles uncomfortably, but powerfully, in western/southern gothic tinged acoustic rock.

Performances are as emotive and brash as the songs performed, delivering the stories (true and fiction) and experiences of band leader, Dustin Saksek who has lived in the Seattle area since 2015.

tSanF was established in December, 2023 as the second band created and led by Dustin. In his past project, Sojourn Soul, Dustin played regularly throughout Western Washington, with highlights including sharing the stage with acts like Tobias the Owl, Tyler Edwards, Arthur James, and Heather Edgley, as well as working with Producer Jack Endino.
