Old Saw / Saapato

Old Saw formed in 2021 as a recording project that evolved into a collective of revolving members from various corners of the northeastern United States. They make music with organs, fiddles, tape loops, pedal steel, hurdy-gurdy, banjo, harmonicas, and bells. The band began playing live in 2026 after releasing four LPs via Lobby Art Editions and Worried Songs. Their latest album, The Wringing Cloth, was released as a double LP in 2025.

Saapato is the music project of upstate New York–based sound artist Brendan Principato. His work explores the intersection of ecology and music, weaving manipulated field recordings with lush electronic soundscapes that invite listeners to reconsider their place within nature.
