The Motet Do the Southeast; Big Festival Scene Ahead
The Motet got off the boat, headed east, headed west, and they’re ready for more. They have a pair of shows this weekend (March 1 & 2) at the Crystal Bay Club in Nevada. Then they head back east for six shows from DC to Jacksonville, also hitting Charlotte, Raleigh, Atlanta, and Nashville.
About that boat. The Motet blew up Jam Cruise 17 with two great shows plus members hosting the Jam Room and the late-night lounge, and Lyle Divinsky had a gig in the Atrium, not to mention the fact that he showed up all over the place, as did Joey Porter and the horns.
The Motet plays Red Rocks with Galactic and Moon Hooch in July, and they are scheduled to play Backwoods at Mulberry Mountain and FloydFest as their festival card starts to fill up. And they were recently added to the lineup for Bonfire Music & Arts Festival.
No reason to give up the funk. The Motet will hook you up: Dave Watts, drums; Joey Porter, keys; Garrett Sayers, bass; Ryan Jalbert, guitar; Lyle Divinsky, vocals; Parris Fleming, trumpet; and Drew Sayers, sax. Listen to Death or Devotion; you’ll become a believer!
