In Motion is the second full-length album by the Lakeland, Florida-based band Copeland.[5][6] It was released in 2005.[7] The album includes a bonus disc of the Sony Connect Sessions with acoustic versions of "Don't Slow Down," "Pin Your Wings," "Take Care," and "Coffee," the latter two of which are taken from Beneath Medicine Tree.

The album peaked at #115 on the Billboard 200.[8]

Critical reception

[edit]

AllMusic wrote that In Motion "is a surprisingly varied album, offering everything from the muscular emo attack of 'No One Really Wins' to the waltz-time accordion-and-falsetto strangeness of 'Kite.'"[3] Seattle Weekly wrote that the album is characterized by an "emo-tinged whine."[9] Paste called the album "disarmingly anthemic power pop filtered through some unexpectedly theatrical Southeastern sun."[10]
