‘Norther‘, which came out last year on Thirty Tigers/Geronimo West Records is the Austin, TX band’s first album in five years and has proven to be well worth the wait with it being hugely well received by fans and critics alike.

Norther has received high praise from the press. Read an in-depth feature on the album in Rolling Stone.
Last year the band made their Grand Ole Opry debut before and continuing their momentous rise, Shane Smith & the Saints also made their US network television debut on CBS Saturday Morning with performances of ‘It’s Been A While’, ‘The Greys Between’ and the hit single ‘All I See Is You’, which was featured in season 4 of the TV series Yellowstone and has garnered a massive 75 million streams to date.
With three independent albums under their belt and a constant tour schedule, Shane Smith & The Saints built their career with bricks and mortar.
