“Are You In?,” released in 2002 as a single from Morning View (2001), reveals Incubus’s funk and jam-band influences with its laid-back groove and hypnotic bassline. Written by Brandon Boyd, Mike Einziger, Alex Katunich, Chris Kilmore, and José Pasillas, the song combines smooth rhythmic guitar, turntable textures, and a mellow, improvisational vibe that reflects the band’s experimental side. Lyrically, it invites openness and connection, capturing the sense of unity that defined the Morning View sessions. Produced by Scott Litt, it became a live favorite, often extended into funk jams during concerts, and showed Incubus’s versatility beyond alternative rock.
