SUMMARY:THE MOTET (Show Postponed, Fall Date TBA)
DESCRIPTION:Deuterman Productions Presents: THE MOTET

Support: Electric Kif

Throughout history, unity starts on the dancefloor. From ancient tribal cultures to neon night clubs, beats bring bodies together. Once grinding and grooving in unison, the movement generates friction, sparks, and light. That might just be the purest form of energy on the planet. The Motet harness such energy on their ninth full-length, Death or Devotion. In fact, the Denver septet--Dave Watts [drums], Joey Porter [keys], Garrett Sayers [bass], Ryan Jalbert [guitar], Lyle Divinsky [vocals], Drew Sayers [sax], and Parris Fleming [trumpet]--encode a message in their energetic mélange of boisterous badass funk, swaggering soul, and thought-provoking pop.

In the process, they challenge convention and arrive with a dynamic, diverse, and definitive statement.

"The essence is always going to be the groove, but we wanted to expand the idea of what a funk album could be," says Lyle. "Of course, you want a driving backbeat. However, with the division that's going on in this country and the world, I think it's every artist's responsibility to create a conversation. That conversation doesn't have to be political either. It can be about love or an introspective journey. I think the commentary should be on what it's like to be alive today. By drawing on funk, we create a fun, palatable musical vehicle for the message to go down. Our goal is for you to recognize we're all dancing on the same dance floor--even though our steps may look a little different."
