Biography
SA SANCTUARY is an American thrash / death / metal band from an Antonio, Texas. The band has gone through many members (mostly bassists) since it's inception. The bands founding member, Orrie Velasquez, is the only original member. When the band started out in 1987, it was more of a metal / hard rock band, similar to Iron Maiden. In the mid 1990's, SA SANCTUARY ended due to the drummer, and guitarist joining the Air Force. SA SANCTUARY would reform in 1998 with all new members.
Through out time as members changed, so did the musical style of the band. Today they are considered a Thrash, and with some material, Death Metal.
