Saint Motel is an American indie pop band hailing from Los Angeles, California. Formed in 2007, the group consists of A/J Jackson (lead vocals), Aaron Sharp (lead guitar), Dak Lerdamornpong (bass), and Greg Erwin (drums). With a reputation for cinematic and upbeat music, Saint Motel has carved out a distinctive space within the indie music scene. The band first gained widespread attention with their 2014 EP "My Type," which was buoyed by the success of the infectious title track, a song that established their signature blend of indie rock and charismatic, brassy pop.

The band's evolution continued with the ambitious concept album "The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack," a release that further showcased their flair for theatricality and storytelling through music. Saint Motel's sound is often underscored by inventive and glossy production, evident in tracks like "Move" which has been remixed by various artists including GLD, The Floozies, and Jenaux, highlighting the band's danceable rhythm and solidifying their spot in both the indie and remix cultures. Evidently creative beyond their music, the band also engages with fans through immersive experiences and visually stimulating music videos. Saint Motel continues to serve as pioneers of an ever-expanding musical narrative, blending the lines between sonic pleasure and visual artistry.
