Hailing from Seoul, Korea, NST & The Soul Sauce is an eight-piece roots reggae band that warms your heart and makes your soul dance.
Led by Noh Seonteck, the former bassist for Windy City, a first-generation reggae band in Korea that has performed at the Sierra Nevada World Music Festival, CMW, and SXSW, has created the Korea’s “all- star” reggae band NST & The Soul Sauce in 2015. With two feet firmly planted in roots reggae, their unique sound has elements of jazz, African beats, funk, soul, psychedelic, and nyabinghi blended with classic Korean pop. In 2017, the band introduces their newest project featuring a multi-award winning powerhouse Korean traditional vocalist KimYulhee. Along with the influence of Korean traditional sound and philosophy, they’ve created what they have dubbed “Korean reggae."
In March 2016, the group released their first seven-track cassette tape called Heaven is Here/Song for Rico, which has a tasty sampling of reggae, jazz, dub mixed with plenty of catchy hooks. With this one album and their high energy live performances, they have won enthusiastic reviews from not only Korean but also international critics and was actively invited to major festivals such as the Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival (Korea), Ulsan World Music Festival (Korea), Jarasum International Jazz Festival (Korea), Fuji Rock Festival (Japan) and Hong Kong International Reggae Ska Festival. In September 2016, they released a 7 inch worldwide via Eastern Standard Sounds (Korea) and Jump Up Records (U.S.A.), which topped the album sales chart on ReggaeRecord.com.
