Sault
Sault is an enigmatic British music collective known for its eclectic blend of R&B, soul, funk, and afrobeat influences. Emerging in 2019, the group quickly garnered attention for its unique sound and mysterious aura, as the members remain largely anonymous, allowing the music to speak for itself. Sault's core members are believed to include producer Inflo, whose real name is Dean Josiah Cover, and vocalist Cleo Sol. Despite their secrecy, the collective's impact is undeniable, marked by an intensive release schedule and thought-provoking themes centered on social justice, identity, and empowerment. The group's debut albums, "5" and "7," were released in 2019, introducing listeners to their rich, textured soundscapes and profound lyrical content. In 2020, Sault released two more critically acclaimed albums, "Untitled (Black Is)" and "Untitled (Rise)," both of which resonated with the global Black Lives Matter movement, bringing contemporary social issues to the forefront of their music. Their subsequent releases continued to explore diverse musical styles and delivered complex narratives. Sault’s ability to remain a compelling and relevant force in modern music is attributed to their artistry, mysterious allure, and fierce dedication to crafting socially conscious, genre-defying music.
