Based in Ho Chi Minh City, Saigon Soul Revival (SSR) has been bringing alternative pre-1975 music from Saigon back to the stage since 2016. Through electrifying live performances, the band honors the original composers and singers of the golden era of Nhạc Vàng, while applying new compositons and interpretations of old Vietnamese songs.
The core lineup consists of five members: Nguyễn Anh Minh (vocals), Indy Jeremy Vinh Laville (guitar & Đàn Nguyệt), Nguyễn Hương Bảo Hiếu (drums), Gabriel Kaouros (bass/percussion), and Đăng Nguyễn Khoa (keys).
With tight grooves, psychedelic textures, and a powerful, distinctive sound, SSR has performed countless shows across Vietnam, including major events such as Quest Festival, Vibe Nation, and Mui Ne Music & Art Festival.
In 2017, the band participated in the nationally renowned TV format Ban Nhạc Việt (known internationally as The Band) and performed live during the release tours for the Saigon Supersound Compilation series in Vietnam.
Since 2023, SSR has expanded internationally, performing in the UK and Australia at WOMAD, in Germany at Sống ở Berlin Festival and Festival der Kulturen, in France at Trans Musicales, in Portugal at Festival Músicas do Mundo, as well as in China and other countries.
