Formed in early 2007Saint of the Day's debut EP Maker Fair is a blend of rock with elements of the blues. The 5 songs found on this ep (1-"Little Miss My Way", 2-"Relevance", 3-"Heaven", 4-"Bartender", 5-"Humor Me") are driven by the guitar talents of band member Sergio Ortega.

 

The songs are for the most part up-tempo rockers laced with rich guitar solos along with steady drumbeats. Inside of the rock genre the songs range in style from rousing southern rockers to more progressive and blues flavored tracks.

 

The band decided to write songs about subjects that almost everyone could relate to. Issues like, relationships, forgiveness, overindulgence, and laziness are covered in the songs.

 

Saint of the Day has really come out of the starting gate strong with this EP. It grabs your attention from the rocking first song, "Little Miss My Way" and doesn't ever let go.

 

Hopefully it won't be too long before the band goes back into the studio and puts out a full-length release. Until then their Maker Fair EP should fulfill your rock needs.
