{"product_id":"623664","title":"Posies, The - Solid States  [VINYL]","description":"Brand New From Reputable UK Company With 30 Years Experience In Retail, Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.\u003cbr\u003eAll items shipped within 3 working days of payment.\u003cbr\u003ePlease note that all our DVDs are Region 2.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRock 'n' roll has rarely been as smart, soulful or satisfying than it has in the hands of The Posies. During an on\/off career that's stretched across four decades, the Seattle-rooted outfit, led by musical polymaths Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow, have shaped and re-shaped their muse, creating one of the more compelling catalogues in modern pop.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eWith SOLID STATES, their 8th album, the Posies mark dramatic changes in the lives, the music, the evolution of the band. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eWhen the Posies long time drummer, Darius, died suddenly last year, Auer and Stringfellow were understandably devastated. Hard as it was to continue without such a close friend and great musician, the moment called for a reinvention. For now... the idea of the band getting into a room and banging out the music, garage band style, was over. The ideas coming from Jon and Ken were fragile and the moods contemplative. Death, divorce, loss. Even the joys of life are fleeting enough as to be treated with care and respect.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eOf course, the Posies still retain their legendary melodic abilities, their trademark vocal harmonies and their lyrical agility. The band has always been exploring, growing. The multi year gaps between albums are typically spent in countless other projects that bring new skills, sounds, experiences and people to the picture. As artists, the band feels it's their duty to take risks and explore.","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56059748647297,"sku":"623664","price":37.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/611OwQZmnFL._SL1500.jpg?v=1786133119","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/623664","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
