Colorado funk mainstays The Motet have announced a new batch of fall 2018 tour dates which will surround their previously announced four-night Halloween run.
The tour will kick off on September 24th in Chico, CA before heading to the Midwest for shows in Detroit, MI; Grand Rapids, MI; Chicago, IL; and Covington, KY alongside Chicago-based jam quartet, Mungion. From there, the band heads south for an “evening with” performance in Asheville, NC and a show at Athens, GA’s Georgia Theatre with Keller Williams.
After a two-week break, The Motet will return to the road with their four-night, four-city Halloween run, featuring an All Hallows Eve late-night show at Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas after Phish‘s performance at the MGM Grand followed by shows in Los Angeles, CA, Solana Beach, CA, and Phoenix, AZ with Seattle-based seven-piece, The Dip, over the next three nights.
The following weekend, The Motet will head to the east coast for a two-night run at Brooklyn, NY’s Brooklyn Bowl alongside Kat Wright on night one and Funky Dawgz Brass Band on night two. The weekend after that, they’ll return home to the Rockies for their “Hometown Hustle” featuring two nights at The Ogden Theatre supported by Escort and Cory Wong, respectively. Finally, the tour will wrap up with two more Mungion-assisted shows in Milwaukee, WI, and Minneapolis, MN.
On July 27th and 28th, The Motet will mount their first-ever festival, Motet on the Mesa, at Taos Mesa Brewing Mothership in Taos, New Mexico. You can read drummer Dave Watts and vocalist Lyle Divinsky‘s thoughts on the upcoming event, their recent Red Rocks show, and more here.
