Saetia was formed in 1997 in New York City and only existed until 1999. During two decades of inactivity, the band’s music took on a life of its own, cultivating a large international fanbase and is broadly acknowledged as massively influential in the DIY emo hardcore universe. In 2016, the band released a double album discography via Jeremy Bolm’s(Touché Amoré) Secret Voice Records. This project reignited the band’s interest in playing music, and 6 years later, in November of 2022, the band played 5 sold out shows in NYC and Philadelphia. The response was overwhelming, and the shows raised $31K for local charities defending trans rights and protecting abortion access. By January 2023, the band had booked additional benefit shows in California, two shows in England, and a festival appearance in Florida at Fest. The band has since continued to tour all over the U.S. in 2024 & 2025, and looks to play more international shows in 2026. To date the band has raised over $67K for local organizations.
