Beautiful Escape; Posies Revisited

During their 20-year career, it could be argued that The Posies have written more great powerpop songs than any other band. Burning Sky Records - the label that released a brilliant 3-CD tribute to powerpop icons Jellyfish last year - is back with an even more extensive homage to The Posies. Beautiful Escape: The Songs of The Posies Revisited features 45 incredible covers of Posies songs spanning their entire career performed by artists from all over the world, including present and former Posies members Jon Auer, Joe Skyward, Ken Stringfellow, and Brian Young.
