Sathönay est un projet de Nico Poisson, membre de NED, Totale Eclipse... et fondateur de S.K Records. Depuis peu en version trio, ce projet est tourné vers la musique orientale à travers l'utilisation du saz électrique (un grand luth d'origine turque, pour faire court). D'oriental il n'y a que la saveur, les morceaux sont dans un registre pop psychédélique.
Le line-up d'équilibristes est constitué de Nico Poisson au saz et au chant, de François Virot à la batterie que l'on connaît pour Clara Clara et le projet qui porte son nom dont le nouvel album vient de sortir sur Born Bad ; au violoncelle, Léonore Grollemund apporte sa grande connaissance des modes orientaux et des Balkans, qu'elle pratique dans de nombreuses formations de musique traditionnelle dont les infâmes Sex Drugs & Rebetiko et désormais aussi au sein de l'Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp XXL.
Le trio a enregistré son album Lost a Home à Marseille avec le producteur anglais Daniel O'Sullivan, qui officie dans Ulver, Grumbling Fur, Mothlite et dernièrement This is not this heat. Sa production ample et céleste rajoute une dimension mystique à la rugosité des thèmes orientaux parfois mélancoliques, rageurs et primitifs.

Sathönay is a project of Nico Poisson, member of NED, Totale Eclipse and founder of the S.K. records label. Recently expanded into a trio, this project is based on oriental music through the use of an electric Saz (Saz is a type of turkish lute, to be short), cello and drums. From oriental music there is only the flavour, the songs can be more easily filed under vaguely pop psychedelia.

The album Lost a home coming out on march 31st 2017 was recorded in Marseille with british producer Daniel O'Sullivan, member ofUlver, Grumbling Fur, Mothlite and recently This is Not this heat. His wide and celestial production adds a mystical dimension to the raucousness of the oriental themes sometimes melancholic, furious and primitive. 

Sathönay is the name of a square where we used to like to hang out.

Thank you, welcome.
