Saint Motel is an American indie pop band from Los Angeles, whose music has been described as everything from "dream pop" to "indie prog". The band consists of A/J Jackson (lead vocals, guitar, piano), Aaron Sharp (lead guitar), Dak Lerdamornpong (bass), and Greg Erwin (drums).
The group initially came together while Jackson and Sharp were attending film school in Southern California.

The band emphasizes visuals in addition to its music; their 2009 debut EP, ForPlay, included a video for each of the six songs.
The band's first full-length album, Voyeur, debuted at #18 on the alt specialty radio charts and six of its eleven songs charted on the Hype Machine Charts. The album was celebrated by everyone from the Washington Post to Daytrotter. The band released the EP My Type with Parlophone on August 17 in the UK.
