The Saint Cecilia
From the outside, The Saint Cecilia is a collection of emotional images—love, art, power, passion, lust, and verve. They are a driven and unique band from all over the Northern Hemisphere.
In a time when names like Bowie, Hendrix, Brown, and Morrison still generate mystery, they mean very little to the musical charts. Actually, at a time when music itself seems to mean little to those charts… The Saint Cecilia arrives on fire and ready to shake up and wake up a somewhat sleepy musical world.
Yes, they rock. And yes, they play—microphones, guitars, bass, drums, and whatever else it takes to make music with heart, sparks, rhythm, and soul.
If you’ve been missing moving, grooving, and just getting out and living hard, fun, and full—you’ve just found your new soundtrack.
Dig in and get ready for one hell of a ride.
