St. Paul and The Broken Bones is an American eight-piece soul band based in Birmingham, Alabama, United States, that formed in 2012. St. Paul and the Broken Bones songs have also featured in movie and TV spots such as Los AngelesGrey’s AnatomyBig Little LiesSuitsBlack LightningESPNFifty Shades of GreyLife of the PartyThe GamblerMob WivesStitchers, and Switched at Birth,

In May 2015, trombonist Ben Griner left the group[10] to work on personal projects.[11] Their second album Sea of Noise was released in September 2016.[12] In 2017, they were nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Musical Performance.[13]

The band released a single, “Apollo”, in June 2018, and announced an album, Young Sick Camellia, released in September.[14] The major theme of the album is Janeway’s relationships with his father and grandfather. After the recording of the album, saxophone player Jason Mingledorff left the band and was replaced by Amari Ansari.[15] Kevin Leon also replaced Andrew Lee on drums before the release of the album.[16] In 2018, Paul Janeway was featured on the title cut of Sigala‘s album Brighter Days.

In 2021, St. Paul and the Broken Bones announced they had signed with ATO Records.[17] Their first release for their new label, The Alien Coast, followed in January 2022 and was well received by critics. The sound of the new album was a departure from their previous releases, incorporating elements of psychedelic rockstoner metal, and hip-hop inspired beats with the funk and soul sounds for which they’d become known.[18] Janeway has said that Greek mythology and dystopian sci-fi were some of the inspirations for the album.[19]

In anticipation of the birth of his daughter Marigold in September 2020, Janeway wrote a series of letters to his child. These deeply personal letters became the songs featured on the band’s latest album Angels in Science Fiction, released in April 2023. While continuing the musical experimentation found in the band’s other recent records, the album has more quiet, minimalist moments than their other releases, with some songs featuring nothing more than Janeway’s voice and an acoustic guitar.[20]

The band has a star on the wall of historic music venue First Avenue in Minneapolis.

Janeway, as St. Paul, released a solo single, “Colder”, in February 2024.[21]
