“What an incredible way to perform The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack in the most thematically true way possible,” shared Saint Motel frontman A/J Jackson. “Live with one of the best orchestras in the world and showcasing not only all the songs but the incredible film score transitions. It’s something truly special.”
The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack was co-produced by Saint Motel frontman A/J Jackson and Grammy Award-winner Mark Needham (The Killers, Dolly Parton, Chris Isaac), and continues the Saint Motel custom of joyfully blurring genres, bringing in elements of everything from symphonic pop to big band. Connecting with Bojadziev, Saint Motel are able to take this soundtrack and create a true score to a fictional film, in a unique setting, providing fans a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience.
