Information
A new beginning can happen at any time. No matter where you may be on your journey, youcan always start over once again.After 26 years, nine albums, and over a thousand shows, The Motet embark on another chaptergalvanized in equal measure by their longstanding bond and a surge of fresh energy. The genre-breaking groupDave Watts [drums], Joey Porter [keys], Garrett Sayers[bass], Drew Sayers[keys, saxophone], and Ryan Jalbert [guitar]officially welcome Sarah Clarke [lead vocals] to thefamily. Their inimitable instrumental interplay proves just as fiery as ever, while her additiononly fuels their collective flame higher.They ignite a new era with their 2024 full-length album and first with Sarah on the mic,LoveTime.Its our first step into the world as this iteration of The Motet,affirms Sarah.Its also anopportunity for folks to hopefully jump aboard and seewhere it goes.It is the beginning,agrees Dave.Were not in this for money or fame. We just want to be ableto write songs and play shows. The fact we can travel as far as we do, go through everything as ateam, and play music we wrote together ishumbling. To see people coming out to shows,smiling, singing, dancing, and sustaining our careers is nothing short of a miracle.The Motet bubbled up out of Colorado back in 1998. Their catalog has grown to encompass abevy of fan favorite albums. In between, they have packed houses coast-to-coast. The band hasimpressively headlined their hometown Red Rocks Amphitheatre seven times as well as gracingthe bills of Bonnaroo, Bottlerock, Electric Forest, Bumbershoot, Summer Camp, and High Sierra,to name afew.The Motet first crossed paths with Sarah on tour. Blown away by her performance with herband Dirty Revival, Dave kept in touch, and asked her to sing at a handful of Bay Area shows in2022. Sparks flew, chemistry sizzled and the collaboration showed immense promise. She soonfound herself in the studio with the group, lending her powerhouse pipes toNatural LightandWe Got U,paving the way for the new albumLove Time.Weve continued going down a path of funk, soul, and disco, but Sarah takes it all up a notch,Dave smiles.She has a unique way of approaching and lyrics, and she collaborates with the restof us really well. Were on the same road, but it has a different color to it.
