The members of Lotus were friends in grade school. The lead singer was influenced by his mom's love of music. Lotus began performing at Motto, a college bar. The band kept asking the local radio station to play their first release.

Members of Lotus hope this next tour brings in more fans than ever. The group recently completed their most current release, but they are thinking of what is next to come. Lotus's newest record is the group's fifth record.

Often times, critics praise Lotus for their ability to connect with the crowd when they perform live. A music critic from Champaign, Rick Lambert, has always been pleased with band’s big sound. Lotus’s newest project is receiving terrific reviews from all the critics, including Wes Menchen from Albany and Don Klinger from Louisville.

Lotus was discovered after their single was heard on a local music hour on X95.1. The groupspent years before being signed as an opening act. Lotus were sure they were not going to be a one hit wonder after their single became popular.

Lotus realized that they had a real chance to become a headlining national act in 1998, as soon as the group's first fan club was started by Jenna Brady. The fan club received a huge boost after Kimberly Slatter designed a website for the group. That coupled with the tour across the nation saw the fan club’s official membership reach numbers in the thousands.

Buffalo has always been a haven for the band, so they are sure to schedule a performance there every time they tour. Lotus is able to please the audience every concert by playing previous hits and songs from their latest project. Lotus’s tickets for their latest tour are available on TheSeats.com, along with the complete concert schedule and seating charts.
