Satellite Soul is a critically acclaimed alternative country/folk rock band from Kansas. Their sound has developed and matured over the years from jangly roots rock to a hard cutting Alt-Country sound. They were formed in 1996 while living in Manhattan, Kansas and played extensively in the Midwest as an independent band. The band toured extensively nationwide, playing with many of the top acts in Christian music. They shared billing with artists such as the Newsboys, Audio Adrenaline, Skillet, Smalltown Poets, Chris Tomlin, Steven Curtis Chapman, and others. They toured extensively with Big Tent Revival, Jennifer Knapp, Eli, Clear, Jason Ingram Band, Mitch McVicker, and others.

In 1997 they signed with Ardent Forefront Records and made their National debut with their self-titled first release. The band's first single, "Say I Am," was top three on the CHR charts and began a string of top ten radio hits that lasted for several years. Follow up hit "Fool," broke the top ten later that year and the music video "Either Way" was number one for several weeks on the Video Charts (ZooTV). "Wash" was another top ten favorite and also charted on Rock Radio. "Equal To the Fall" was the band's only Adult Contemporary hit.
