THE SOURCE WEEKLY - Bend, OR

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.

SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER
Energetic Jimi Hendrix guitar bravado, driving funk bass lines and Clauson's gruff vocals help ground the songs within the rock genre, while the band's tendency to break into unscheduled improv keeps the live shows fun and flamboyant.
 
TACOMA WEEKLY
The band unifies crowds with its vocal melodies, harmonies and stellar rhythm section. It moves seamlessly through original compositions with a liberating mixture of world-funk, jam-rock and sweet ballads that beg total abandonment of self.
 
SPOKANE PRESS
Something happens in the air when Flowmotion play. Even people like me who don't have on rhythmic bone in their body can't resist moving to the music.

RELIX MAGAZINE - On the Rise

Flowmotion may be a Northwest gem, but through constant live shows they have matured into stage veterans about to break onto the national scene.

As an observer I sense (Flowmotion’s) confidence. The band had already played a killer rendition of Pink Floyd’s “Pigs (Three Different Ones),” and renewed an old song with fresh energy-Clauson ripped into a wicked solo and just as it was reaching its limit, the band went double time for a triumphant finish. And what happened next was… Sabu went insane on his bass … Sabu’s bass became a beast, and he beat it into submission. By the end of the jam, he was on his knees, a beatific smile on his face, winding up the neck and then gently back down. He wrangled that jam and then laid the reins at the feet of the band, and … they roused the song up for one final crescendo while the crowd whooped and hollered.

It was that elusive peak that people follow a band across the country to climb.”

RELIX MAGAZINE - Scene & Heard

"Annual festivals, loyally supported, weave elements that bind and build community and Flowmotion's annual homegrown and hand-built festival is one example that surpasses expectations. The White Horse Amphitheater sits nestled in shaded campgrounds with glacier-fed streams as backdrops. Ample car parking enables the 4,000 fans to pack in or car camp. It's hard not to be impressed by a campsite that features sofas, occasional tables, wood-fired smokers and lighting supplied the Milky Way."

Flowmotion "unleashed a week's worth of furious energy for nearly three hours with Josh Clauson at the helm, flanked by Bob Rees (percussion and drums), Sabu Miyata (bass), Scott Goodwin (drums, vocals) and RL Heyer (guitar, lapslide). Heyer's addition to the lineup has tightened the band and added some well-matched rock guitar to complement Clauson's ranging style."

"I love High Sierra, enjoy Bonnaroo, tolerate others but can't live without Summer Meltdown."
