Holy Motors

A gig held at The Louisiana on Wednesday 17th February. The event starts at 19:00.

Tallinn’s Holy Motors, post-Soviet cowgirls & boys making dreamy, melancholy Americana, play The Louisiana. Holy Motors hail from Tallinn, Estonia, an incongruence that adds to this band’s endless allure.

Though their music is often tied to traditions of Americana roots music, their critically acclaimed debut album “Slow Sundown” (2018) on Wharf Cat Records put them on the map as an unignorable group of post-Soviet cowgirls & boys making music “that sounds like the old West” (Fader).

What began as a shared infatuation with the American West evolved into a sincere embodiment of that dreamy, melancholy aura, both in their music and persona.
