Saint Etienne

Saint Etienne is a British band formed in 1990, featuring singer Sarah Cracknell alongside founding members Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs. Their music blends elements of electronic dance, indie pop, and retro British pop, often combining sample-based production, shimmering synths, and house-influenced rhythms with orchestral or cinematic arrangements. They are noted for mixing nostalgic references to 1960s pop with contemporary club sounds and for alternating between upbeat dance-oriented tracks and more reflective, soundtrack-style material.
