'''S.A. Sanctuary''' (or SA SANCTUARY) is a band from [[San Antonio Texas]]. ==about S.A. Sanctuary==The band has gone through many members (mostly bassists) since it's inception. In the early-mid 1980's the band was named Sanctuary. Later, a band from Washington State would use the name as well and get signed. Rather than feud over the name, Velasquez opted to alter the band name to S.A. Sanctuary to avoid confusion in 1987. The bands founding member, [[Orrie Velasquez]], is the only original member. When the band started out in 1987<I>(post Sanctuary)</I>, 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.
