HoboEye Music:
Motor, Wilmington, DE

In the winter of 2000, Jamie Wilson and Roger Hesketh made some recordings on a 4-track tape deck. The songs blended various musical styles almost indiscriminately: indie-rock, '60s soul, country music, folk songs and traditional rock and roll. It all made sense though. After all, they like a lot of music.

A year later, the two songwriters put a new group together with Matt Lyons and Sarah Cox. Sarah and Jamie got married and Sarah changed her name to Wilson. Matt and Roger were going to get married too, for, you know, solidarity, but they weren't in love, and the world doesn't need another loveless marriage. The four later discovered a great taco stand and ate there together before every band practice. They called themselves Motor.

The music they have invented and recorded sounds only like Motor. Listen to it here. This is their site and you can contact them - they'll play almost anywhere. All you have to do is ask. Motor may belong to them, but they're not stingy.
