The group was founded by lead guitarist and songwriter Salman Zaidi and vocalist & lyricist Shahbaz Zaidi, who were later joined by bassist Aashir, drummer Shahbaz Asad, and rhythm guitarist Usman Ahmad Khan.

Saturn was formed by brothers Salman and Shahbaz in 2003 and was joined by Hasham Kazi with whom they started recording "Raakh," their debut track, at S & M Studios Islamabad.

Hasham left the band due to personal reason shortly after the release of the song and the two brothers moved on.

In 2004 Saturn released their second song with a completely new line up and started playing concerts regularly until late 2005.

In 2008 Saturn played almost forty concerts for U ROCK, a project run by Ufone Telecom of Pakistan.
