Evermotion is the seventh studio album by the American alternative rock band Guster, released on 13 January 2015, on both Ocho Mule, the band's own label, and Nettwerk Records.[5] It was their first album in five years, following Easy Wonderful in 2010. The album's title comes from a line in the song "Gangway" ("I'd lean into each turn seeking evermotion"). The first single from the album, "Simple Machine", was released on 9 September 2014, with the B-side track "Long Night".[5] Guster stated on their website that they wanted to "become something else completely" with Evermotion.

Evermotion peaked at #32 on the Billboard 200 and reached #2 on the Alternative Albums chart.[6]
