SAZ are an original music,
|
|
female fronted, heavy metal (old skool style), kick ass,
|
|
Scottish rock band.
|
|
We have been gigging around Scotland since 1998
|
|
and loving every minute.
|
|
SAZ was born in 1998 inspired by punk rock and 80's heavy metal.
|
|
A gigging version of the band was formed in 1999
|
|
and had a distinctly rock/pop sound, which, with time,
|
|
evolved into today's "hard hitting" rock sound
|
|
with powerful melodic vocals.
|
 |
|
One of the highlights for the band
|
|
was a support slot with up and coming rock band,
|
|
Torquamada, at "King Tuts" in Glasgow.
|
|
"We were really nervous about this one" recalls Richy,
|
|
"We were the first on out of four bands,
|
|
which meant going on at 8.30pm in a city
|
|
who didn't know us from adam,
|
|
so we really didn't expect a crowd,
|
|
let alone a good response.
|
|
As it turned out, we played to audience of 400,
|
|
and they really seemed to get into what we do
|
|
and the buzz was terrific!"
|
 |
|
One of the biggest gigs for us so far was supporting BLAZE
|
|
(former front man with "Iron Maiden")
|
|
at "The Doghouse" in Dundee. Marina recalls,
|
|
"Ian Whyte (Dundee club manager and music promoter)
|
|
really helped us there.
|
|
He knew that members of the band were "Maiden" fans
|
|
and thought we were up to the job and gave us a chance.
|
|
It turned out be a great night for us and "Blaze",
|
|
who were superb!"
|
 |
|
Another highlight has to be our support slot with
|
|
Maiden Scotland and Paul Dianno at the Doghouse
|
|
Maiden Scotland must be the best tribute band
|
|
we've ever supported
|
|
and an obvious choice for Paul Dianno's
|
|
backing band when touring in Scotland.
|
|
They have a superb vocalist themselves
|
|
and have the Maiden material down to a tee.
|
|
Paul Dianno lives up to all expectations
|
|
and is a force to be reckoned with.
|
|
It turned out to be one of our best gigs yet!
|
|
Cheers guys!

In 2007 we completed shooting a promotional video
|
|
for the track "Gotta Get A Grip".
|
|
In 2009 we had live video shot at an outdoor festival.
|
|
In 2006/07/08 and 2012/16/17
|
|
we made appearances at Kirriemuir's Bonfest,
|
|
a yearly week-end festival celebrating all things AC/DC.
|
|
Kirriemuir is Bon Scott's home town as it is Kev The Rev's
|
|
and we are always honoured to take part.
|
|
Today, in 2025, we are gigging as often as possible
|
|
and have now been on the road and living the dream
|
|
for over twenty years and it's all down to a love of rock music
|
|
and playing live.
|
|
Thanks to everyone who has supported us over the years.
