Finn’s Motel Is One of 2018’s STL 77 Honorees

In 2006, Finn’s Motel made waves with Escape Velocity, a collection of heart-racing power-pop with one foot in the garage and the other on an arena stage. Eleven years later, the Joe Thebeau-led troupe oiled its joints and slowly creaked back to life with the release of two full-length albums (and, as of April, the Stone Lions EP). There’s no rust for the weary, however — and the troupe is swiftly making up for lost time.
