Article Contributed by LiveLoud | Published on Wednesday, January 6, 2016

Progressive funk collective The Motet recently announced 2016 Winter Tour plans.  Among the plans - a selection of vocalist friends, old and new, will join the band along their upcoming Winter Tour dates. On the list of special guests are Tanya Shylock, LaDamion Massey and Paul Creighton – all familiar voices to Motet fans because of their amazing appearances during The Motet’s special “Mixtape” performances over the past couple of years.  New to The Motet stage for select dates… introducing Mr. Lyle Divinsky.

The Motet 2016 Winter Tour launches on January 14 in Telluride, followed by 1 night in Aspen and 2 in Keystone. Afterwards, the band zigzags through California and Nevada, including stops in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Lake Tahoe before ending in San Francisco on February 5 and 6.   The tour resumes on February 18 with stops in the Southeast and Midwest.

Over the past 18 months, The Motet has emerged as a powerful force in the national live music scene.  Last month, after announcing their band mate and forever brother Jans Ingber was departing from The Motet to pursue other personal priorities, the band wrapped up a hugely successful 2015 with two sold-out shows: on New Year’s Eve in Atlanta and at BB Kings in New York City on January 1.  The future is looking bright for The Motet in 2016!
