FAQ:
Q- Are you in a band?
A- Yeah, my band's called Galt Aureus.
Q- How do you...pronounce that?
A- Galt rhymes with halt. You say Aureus like: awr-ee-uhs. Galt Aureus! Got it?
Q- Do you have an album out?
A- Yeah!! It's called CITADELS and it's all new songs. You can read some reviews to the right. Or you can listen to it for yourself. It's on iTunes now! http://itunes.apple.com/Web...
And my website: http://www.galtmusic.com
Q- Do you write your own music?
A- Yes...the music you'll hear on this page is my own, written and recorded by me. I compose the music, generally play all of the instruments, write and sing the lyrics.
Q- Who else is in Galt Aureus?
A- Susan. She sings and plays guitar.
Q- I think what's on the radio sucks. When can I hear YOU on the radio?
A- Indie musicians don't get a fair shake when it comes to radio (or much of anything). But we can change that. Get my record, share the music with your friends, and post everywhere you can about it. When the industry sees what they're missing, we'll make them change.
Q- What's your name?
A- Saher.
Q- So what's sbGALT?
A- It's basically a combination of my real name (Saher) and my band name (Galt Aureus). Since sbGALT is my YouTube username, it's how I'm known around here.
Q- Are you signed to a record label?
A- No. I'm independent. Unsigned. Which means I do everything myself.
Q- Can I put these songs on my iPod?
A- I give away mp3 downloads for many of the songs on my YouTube channel; you can find a link to those in the description of each video. If you want the songs from my new record on your iPod, I suggest you buy the record ;)
Q- I noticed you put "original song" in the title of a lot of your videos - what's that about?
A- It just means I wrote the song myself.
Q- Do you read your comments/messages?
A- Usually :)
Q- What now?
A- Be a part of it: http://www.galtmusic.com

Some reviews:
"This is the one indie album you cannot miss: Galt Aureus presents a sophisticated amalgam of hard-hitting rock, sweet, soaring melodies and ethereal orchestral elements...With a song-story that will tear your heart out..."
"This CD is incredible. The power-songs like The Cavalcade and Conquerors blew me away. Then there are the love songs like Our Own Versailles and Eight which split me open because they're emotional and sincere. In between, huge dramatic swings are woven together with wildly inventive songs (Citadels being my favorite) so the CD ends up feeling like some kind of epic film. I don't even know what genre to call this band but it doesn't matter. Everyone NEEDS to hear this. In entirety. From start to finish. "
"Galt Aureus fuse the best of many genres -- the clear precision of classicism, the passion of romanticism, and the intransigent heartbeat of the best of rock."
"Thank you -- for being my favorite musical experience. The entirety of your music far surpasses anything I've listened to in my entire life."
"Citadels came today in the mail. I listened straight through and didn't walk away the same person. I wish i could convey my appreciation for your music but you will simply have to take my word for it. Thank You and continue rocking!"
"Epic...a thing of beauty, and a pleasant surprise."
