Saint Motel is known for their over-the-top performances and an explosive, psychedelic, indie-pop sound. In the world of Saint Motel, nothing bows to convention: Stages become forests and living rooms, and shows become kaleidoscopic mind explosions in 3D. The band's live shows are marked by this effusive energy and the spectacle of exciting visual soundscapes that blend the sonic with the artful.
Not even three months in, 2010 has already proven to be a banner year for Nneka. The Nigerian-born artist continues her mission of spreading hope, optimism, and truth with a series of performances at SXSW. Her US album debut, Concrete Jungle, has been lauded by critics and fans alike. From playing sold-out shows to performing on “Late Night With David Letterman” to being cited as an artist to watch by Rolling Stone and SPIN, Nneka’s message has proven itself to be universal.
