Beloved funk band The Motet shocked fans everywhere at the end of last year, when they announced that Jans Ingber would be departing the band. Not wanting to break their stride, the funk ensemble from Colorado brought on Lyle Divinsky, who has been leading the band to new heights with his powerful vocal style. With plans to headline Red Rocks Amphitheatre this summer, alongside Medeski, Martin & Wood andVulfpeck, the band has another exciting announcement to make: a new album.

Jans Ingber On Leaving The Motet And His Future In Music

On July 8th, the group will release Totem, their first studio release with Divinsky, as produced by Lettuce/Soulive guitarist Eric Krasno. They’ve already dropped the first single, “Damn!“, and today share a psychedelic journey through the album’s second single “Fool No More.” The previously unreleased track comes with an official video that brings the artwork of Totem alive for a funky-fresh animation.
