April's Motel Room was an American rock band from Simi Valley, California. The band released one studio album, Black 14, in 1994 through Immortal, an imprint of Epic Records.[1] Despite the album's generally positive reviews, its sales were low. The group's music has been described as a mixture of grunge and the Grateful Dead, with Washington Post writer Geoffrey Himes describing the voice of lead singer Tom Kelly as "a dead ringer for Eddie Vedder."[2]
