The Utah Saints are a British dance band from Leeds in West Yorkshire. They are Jez Willis and Tim Garbutt, and are notorious amongst their fans and the dance music community for taking a long time in between their releases- their first two albums were released seven years apart.

The Utah Saints were pioneers of bringing live, custom created samples into mainstream music. IE: The warbling sax line in their track "Trance Atlantic Glide" was created by recording a live sax in studio then mixing it into a sample and tweaking it left and right. This was a unique approach to the traditional method of sampling pre-existing music for mixing.
