Los Angeles indie-pop outfit Saint Motel will finally make their long-anticipated debut on Australian shores this September and October, announcing a string of East Coast headline shows alongside a festival slot at the much-loved Wanderer Festival on the Sapphire Coast.

Known for their genre-blending sonic palette and immersive live performances, the Platinum-certified four-piece are bringing their unique brand of indie, funk, and cinematic pop to audiences in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane—marking their first ever headline shows in the country.

Since their acclaimed 2012 debut Voyeur, Saint Motel have carved out an eclectic discography that includes hits like My Type and Move. Their latest release, Saint Motel & the Symphony in the Sky, is a lush and ambitious offering that underscores the band’s evolution while staying true to their hallmark of euphoric songwriting and theatrical arrangements.

With over 2 billion global streams and performances at major festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo, Saint Motel have earned a reputation for high-energy shows that fuse storytelling with spectacle. Their ability to transition from sun-drenched pop hooks to funk-infused anthems—often within the same set—has made them a staple on international stages, supporting acts such as Panic! At The Disco, Arctic Monkeys, Imagine Dragons, Weezer, and Twenty One Pilots.

Their upcoming Australian visit will give local audiences a chance to experience the band’s vibrant live show in full force, offering a rich catalogue of songs that span over a decade of genre-bending creativity.
