Black Satellite is a rock duo from NYC comprised of Larissa Vale and Kyle Hawken.
Having been writing music together for several years, Black Satellite is the culmination
of a deep-rooted partnership contributing to their unified writing style.

Shortly after launching their first single Valkyrie from their full-length album Endless,
Black Satellite was requested as support for Starset at NYC’s Gramercy Theatre on the
strength of their debut.

Billboard describes the album as “the end point one might arrive at after listening to all
of Muse’s catalog and deciding they just weren’t epic enough.”

Black Satellite was named one of Alternative Press’ “12 Bands You Need to Know” in a
print issue of the magazine. They subsequently released two cover songs paying tribute
to Type O Negative, which charted on metal radio.

The band recently concluded writing and recording their sophomore record, Aftermath,
mixed by veteran producer Ben Grosse (Marilyn Manson, Filter, Breaking Benjamin).
Release date to be announced. Their single Void is the first taste of the brand new

album. Knotfest commenting on the track: “the first single offers a glimpse into the bold,

stylishly dark sound that has made the duo of Larissa Vale and Kyle Hawken such a

promising prospect.”

In 2021, they released a cover of Rammstein’s “Sonne” to critical acclaim with Revolver

Magazine describing the track as “a masterclass in metal covers.”

Black Satellite recently completed back-to-back tours as direct support for John 5, Fozzy,

and Nita Strauss in Fall/Winter 2021/2022, with additional appearances at Metal In The

Mountains Fest and Blue Ridge Rock Fest. Black Satellite also toured supporting Cold

and Sumo Cyco in Spring/Summer 2022 and is currently out on tour this Fall with

Drowning Pool. Additional tour dates TBA.
