New Quirky Pop from Saint Motel

One of the band’s I’ve fallen in love with the last year is Saint Motel.  They’ve nearing the release of their newest record, Voyeur, and I expect it to be all over the place, in only the best way possible.  They’ve tossed some gems our way already, and they’re letting us run another great track, “Benny Goodman,” which demonstrates the band’s playfulness.  I think one of the best things about the group is their willing to throw all conventions out the window, writing catchy pop music on their own terms. Love them or hate them, they do it in their own way, and you better respect that. They’ll be bringing their great live show to Austin on August 4th, so start getting ready.

Great New Pop from Saint Motel

The generous dudes over at Saint Motel sent us this track this morning, and I’m so glad they did.  Some groups just have a knack for writing a simple pop tune that is able to rise above standards and find it’s way into constant rotation in your musical life.  The LA quartet is setting up to release their debut, Voyeur, some time this year, and I expect that it’s going to fall somewhere in the vein of bands like Mystery Jets, carefully writing catchy pop numbers I won’t want to share with anyone but myself.  But, just for today, I’d like to share this one with you.

New Jam from Saint Motel

Clearly, summer is upon us, so it’s time to figure out your summer playlists as you head out to the pool, lake, or even the bar.  So one track that’s been giving me a good bit of pep in the step is this new single from Saint Motel.  Listening to it, I can’t even place what the influences are, as the song seems familiar in the sense that the song is catchy and fun, but I can’t pinpoint who I’d say they sound like at the moment. I mean, that’s a good sign right.  From the bouncing piano/keyboard intro, to the precision work on the high-hat, to the melodic vocal harmonies, it’s a well-crafted song through and through.  Here’s a band you’ll enjoy all summer long.
