LISTEN NOW TO ANHEDONIA

 

Saturday Saints (formerly Latterday Saints) are a rock band from Yonkers, New York. Each member brings a different musical influence to the table, combining alt rock sensibilities with big stadium rock anthems.

The band quickly gained a loyal cult following after their formation in the nineties. The band’s sound was refined through extensive gigging in the NYC nightclub circuit. In the late-nineties/early aughts, they were mainstays in iconic haunts like CBGB, Mercury Lounge, ACME Underground, Arlene’s Grocery, and the Hard Rock Cafe.

In 2002, they were voted one of the Top 5 Unsigned Bands in NYC on 102.7 WNEW's Ron & Fez Show. The following year they recorded their signature version of Weezer's "Tired of Sex" for Cleopatra Records' cult album "A Punk Tribute to Weezer."

Saturday Saints' influence extends beyond the world of music. The band not only served as inspiration for the independent feature film, "No Alternative," but were also prominently featured on its soundtrack. The movie won "Best Soundtrack" at the Paris Art and Movie Awards in 2019, which propelled the band back into pop culture and got the attention of Rhyme & Reason Records. Saturday Saints are highlighted on the soundtrack alongside such musical luminaries as: Mudhoney, Lisa Loeb, Superdrag, sElf, Failure, Sebadoh, and others. The soundtrack was chosen as one of the official releases by Record Store Day 2019.

They recently released their debut album "Anhedonia" on Rhyme & Reason, which has been called "pure musical adrenaline" and "never short on memorable riffs, hooks and grooves" in the music press.
