The five-piece Philadelphia-based progressive electronic jam band
Lotus have just released the first single off their upcoming album
Build, "
Massif." The album, their eighth overall, and first since 2011's self-titled
Lotus, will be released on February 19th. In the 13 years since the bands origin in Indiana, the group's sound has traversed a broad array of influences, changing styles, and the adoption of vocals. Yet a crucial component to what defines Lotus sonically is their driving energy, apparent at every live performance, and certainly found here in this single.
Having recently announced their 2013 Winter Tour, Lotus is gearing up for New Years Eve at the
Rams Head Live! in Baltimore, with shows in Chicago and Pittsburg. After a brief, and well earned break, the group will return with shows in Burlington, Boston, New York, leading all the way up to March where they will be performing back-to-back nights in Atlanta, GA, and will likely be ready to announce their Summer plans.
