Biography

Early life

Alabaster Flesh

His first album was an exploration of masculinity in culture that "summons to its use such inveterate forms as ancient mythology and astronomy in order to lend support to his reinvention of modern heroism"cite web |url=http://www.sachasacket.com/store/products/album_alabaster.htm |title=Sacha Sacket:"Alabaster Flesh" Sacha Sacket: Official Web site |accessdate=2007-08-31] . In an August 1, 2001 interview with Greling Jackson of "Oasis Magazine", he comments, " [It] was an album where I was claiming my voice... I really didn't know how to before... I learned to crawl out of my shell and expose my entity." cite web |url=http://www.oasisjournals.com/2001/08/sacha-sacket-finds-his-artistic-voice-on-alabaster-flesh |title="Sacha Sacket finds his artistic voice on Alabaster Flesh" "Oasis Magazine" |accessdate=2007-08-31 ] This first album was largely promoted across California, where he put on live concerts at high schools and university campuses in order to gain exposure.

Recorded in 2004 in Los Angeles with producer Mike Baiardi, Sacha was quoted as saying: "I felt it was time to delve into 'dark things' go places where I degraded myself, where I was a doormat, where I would destroy someone if I could. Not in an attempt to immediately rectify or justify myself, just to express it. I had to be damaged, to have faults, to show the darkness. I really went to those life and death situations where a life is beginning or ending. Where your humanity truly reveals itself, when your character is tested – the underlying truth."cite web |url=http://www.sachasacket.com/store/products/album_shadowed.htm |title=Sacha Sacket:"Shadowed" Sacha Sacket: Official Web site |accessdate=2008-08-18]

Shadowed marked a Sacha touring countless universities and colleges nationwide as well as many festivals.

"Lovers and Leaders"

Sacket's third album, "Lovers and Leaders", debuted in 2007 to generally positive reviews and with the release Sacket toured regionally. He is quoted as saying, "“Although it’s a love album, the theme is really more about my battle not to succumb to it. I guess I equated love with losing power, losing my goals and aspirations. I was trying to find the balance between honoring someone else and myself, while finding where the edges meet.”cite web |url=http://www.sachasacket.com/store/products/album_lovers.htm |title=Sacha Sacket:"Lovers and Leaders" Sacha Sacket: Official Web site |accessdate=2008-08-18]

Sacket also hired a full time backup band: Alexa Brinkschulte on drums, Jennifer Trani on guitar, and Anna Rosales on bass guitar. They toured in clubs and venues along the west coast.
