The Motet is a world-class ensemble that whips audiences into a whirlwind using sheer impromptu force. The rhythms are spontaneous and textured and the beats are hard driving. The band uses this energy to create a rapport between the audience and themselves. 

Founded and led by drummer Dave Watts, the group began more than 10 years ago. Featuring complex compositions written and arranged by Watts himself, the music tells a story through syncopated rhythms and melodies. With roots in jazz, afrobeat, funk, salsa and samba, the Motet keeps their audiences in a dancing frenzy by layering house and techno rhythms into a style that is uniquely their own.
