With their high-energy, infectious rock and roll, Flowmotion dominates the live music scene in the Pacific Northwest. But with booked performances at the biggest West Coast music festivals this summer, including High Sierra and Earthdance Northern California, they are poised to break onto the national scene in 2008.

Flowmotion's live performances are renowned for stellar musicianship, contagious energy, packed dance floors and, courtesy of their two lead guitarists, smoking guitar riffs. Fronted by singer/ songwriter Josh Clauson (electric guitar, vocals), with RL Heyer (electric and slide guitars, vocals), Sabu Miyata (bass), Scott Goodwin (drums, vocals) and Bob Rees (percussion, vibraphone), Flowmotion's expertly controlled grooves harness the power of their funky, percussion-driven rock and roll.

The band also hosts and headlines the Summer Meltdown, a 3-day music festival held in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. 2007's 7th annual event drew over 3,000 people. The festival has hosted such bands as Zilla, Yard Dogs Road Show, Bill Frisell, alto sax extraordinaire Skerik, Garaj Mahal, Sky Cries Mary and Bassnectar. Seattle's own Blake Lewis has also graced the Meltdown's stage as both performer and festival emcee.

"Is That Right," the group's sophomore studio effort (2007), showcases the quintet's fusion of styles while demonstrating their formidable songwriting. Noteworthy tracks are the radio-friendly singles, "Wild Eyes" and "Mercy," while tracks like "People Get Ready" demonstrate the energy of Flowmotion's live shows.

PRESS QUOTES

"The band's instrumental work sparkles with originality and flows with precision and purpose...It's been a long while since I've played a new disc so many times in such a short space of time."
RELIX MAGAZINE

"I hate to cast myself into the cesspool of writers who declare from mountaintops, barstools, or blog posts that any one band is 'going to be the next big thing.' But I suppose it's time I hop into the cesspool. Flowmotion will soon be a huge player on the live music scene. There I said it."
THE SOURCE WEEKLY

"Energetic Jimi Hendrix guitar bravado, driving funk bass lines and Clauson's gruff vocals help ground the songs within the rock genre."
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER

"Something happens in the air when Flowmotion play. Even people like me who don't have one rhythmic bone in their body can't resist moving to the music."
