Real name: Chester Hawkins

Members: Chester Hawkins

Blue Sausage Infant is the work of Chester Hawkins of Washington DC. Since 1986, BSI has produced music that combines aspects of noise, drone, Krautrock, sample-plundering, dark ambient, and kosmische electronics to produce a multi-layered feast for the brain. Hawkins describes his music as "mean-spirited euphoria," a complex breed of long-form psychedelia with a glaze of paranoid tension.

BSI has collaborated in recordings and live performances with Violet (2), Dave Newhouse (Muffins), Thee Maximalists, Insect Factory, Pilesar, Gary Rouzer, Haunted Toilet, New Carrollton, Stolen Government Binder Clip, Lida Husik, and others.
