Satellite Mode
Satellite Mode
Satellite Mode is an indie alternative band based in New York City. Founding members Jessica Carvo and Alex Marko first met in a songwriting session where they quickly found mutual confidence from experimenting with each other’s strengths; Jessica flourished as a powerhouse singer, whereas Alex's classically trained ear brought structure to the off-kilter soundscapes that the band was creating.
The band entered the New York Indie scene as independently as independent gets. Handling all aspects of releases on their own and without any traditional promotion, their debut singles racked up over 6 million cumulative plays on Spotify, landed on the coveted Weekly Buzz and New Music Friday playlists, and crashed the platform’s U.S. and Global Viral Top 10. Early praise came from Noisey and other tastemakers as the band wowed audiences throughout the city since their 2016 arrival.
Now with an EP and several sold out shows under their belt, Satellite Mode hit the ground running in 2018 with their newest single and first to receive Sirius XM radio play, "Gave It All," a wondrous work of pop songwriting and electronic, alt-rock influences that asks the listener to reflect on their roots. Their latest single “Terrified” (as heard on the MTV Movie Awards) was released in July 2018. The band continues to tour with established bands like Guster while simultaneously experimenting in the studio until they fully become mad scientists."
