Saturday Saints is an American rock band from Yonkers, New York, formed in 1995. The group consists of Andreas Burgos (vocals, guitar), Liam McKiernan (guitar, backing vocals, songwriter), and William Dickerson (drums).[1]
Saturday Saints developed their sound during the 1990s through frequent performances on the New York City nightclub circuit.[2] They became regular performers at venues such as CBGB, Mercury Lounge, ACME Underground, Arlene's Grocery, and the Hard Rock Café. The band cultivated a loyal following during this period. In 2002, Saturday Saints were voted one of the "Top 5 Unsigned Bands in New York City" on 102.7 WNEW's Ron & Fez Show. The following year, they recorded a cover of Weezer’s “Tired of Sex” for Cleopatra Records’ compilation album A Punk Tribute to Weezer.[3]
