What if a classic Game Boy soundtrack was composed as a modern electropop dance song that bounces between powerful vocals and ripping guitar solos. Our live shows are an interactive, high-energy, unique experience, encouraging audiences to get involved with the push of a button. We have opened for acts from They Might Be Giants to Andew WK across the US, and have songs featuring Matt Mercer, Mega Ran, I Fight Dragons, Psychostick, & Ashly Burch.
You know that game you rented once when you were 9 and loved it and the music was amazing and almost no one covers it? That's what Steel Samurai plays: the deep cut classics. The only VGM band built on unearthing the rare, the obscure, the under-appreciated melodies that have been swimming around in your subconscious since Blockbuster closed. Featuring the music of Ace Attorney, Mega Man 9, Gimmick, Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, and much more.
