For those waiting for a concert experience with the dynamics of a rock band, the dance inducing rhythms of club music, and the sophistication of modern electronica, an unlikely musical alternative has arrived in the form of the band Lotus. Formed at a Mennonite college that had banned on-campus dancing as late as the 1980's, Lotus brings their club-worthy beats and rocking instrumental anthems to theaters throughout the country. The band's new releases include Escaping Sargasso Sea- a double-disc live album that draws from two previous studio albums, Nomad and The Strength of Weak Ties, along with never before released material. This collection shows Lotus's ability to deconstruct, stretch, and rebuild their compositions spontaneously on stage. In addition to that, the band released a collection of remixes known as Copy Paste Repeat: Lotus Remixed, featuring studio manipulations from artists such as The Juan Maclean, DJ Harry, and Lotus' own Jesse Miller.
