Saint Motel set to play in Dublin for the first time this October

Los Angeles-based indie pop band Saint Motel have announced their first-ever Dublin headline gig, which will be held on Sunday, October 13 during the final run of their Awards Show Tour.

The decision to take the tour overseas was hinted at via a Twitter post and later confirmed earlier today when they announced extended dates to the UK and Ireland. The band also sneakily suggested an upcoming album in the works, tweeting, “We have something very special, very new, very album-ish, coming soon…”

The four man band began their American tour on 24 April 2023 in Chicago and will be taking their journey overseas in early October of this year where they will additionally perform in Leeds, Manchester, London, Glasgow and Wolverhampton as well as Dublin. 

Saint Motel rose to international fame with their platinum hit ‘My Type’ in 2014 and have since released two albums, the latest of which was released in 2021.

The Awards Show Tour is based on fan-selected songs which will allow the audience to choose what songs they would like to hear with an emphasis on enjoying the band's entire discography rather than focusing on an album.

Tickets for Saint Motels Academy gig on October 13 2024, start from €23.05 and are on sale Friday, May 17 at 10 am, tickets are available here.
