FLOWMOTION, IZABELLA TO PLAY A SHOW IN BEND
These guys have an inner pop soul that keeps the music on the right track: highly listenable and with light at the end of the tunnel.

Spend a little time at the band’s MySpace and you’ll quickly get a taste for both sides of Flowmotion. The studio cuts — “How I Know” and “What’s Been” — are pristine, four-minute slices of perfectly pleasant pop-rock. The former has a massive Coldplay/U2 kind of feel, and the latter sounds straight from the Jack Johnson and John Mayer School of Lazy, Good-Times Tunes.
Neither song goes on too long. Both are instantly memorable.
The live recordings, on the other hand, stretch beyond five, six minutes, with guitars soloing and wah-wah pedals wah-wah-ing into oblivion. It’s this side of Flowmotion that has won over fans at the jam-happy High Sierra and Joshua Tree music festivals, plus Central Oregon’s own 4 Peaks fest.

These guys are possessed of such undisguised beauty, muscular musicality and ‘holy crap, they’re good’ chops, all in service of material that anxiously reaches out and seizes you with sureness.
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.
