The gentlemen of Saint Motel met in film school and developed a bond due to a shared interest in cinema. Although coming from musical upbringings, forming a band together would ultimately become a happy accident.
When they decided to make music they were heavily influenced by the films they were studying. As they describe, “Sometimes we approach songs in a visual sense, much like a film. There's an intro, which establishes what’s at stake while the body of the song fleshes out the story. There’s often a plot twist 3/4 of the way through the song which takes the form of a bridge. Then, of course, the conclusion which settles everything back to normal…or does it?”
All of the band members listen to and write a variety of music individually, but when together, they can’t help but play spine cracking, ferociously manic music which defines their spectacular live shows. They describe their lives shows: “Playing live is an extremely therapeutic and cathartic experience. It lets us vent our anger, frustration, sexuality and this usually comes in the form of jumping into things, rolling around, and generally destroying our bodies...but that's all part of the fun!” Saint Motel are currently finishing up their debut E.P. and hope to play in a town near you soon!
