| The Posies circa 2006.The Posies are an American alternative rock group.They are best known for their radio hits "Golden Blunders" (from Dear 23), as well as "Dream All Day" and "Flavor of the Month" (from Frosting On The Beater).Their first public performance came as an acoustic duo that next summer while Ken was home in Bellingham.Failure was released on vinyl near the end of 1988 on local indie label PopLlama.Upon returning from an extensive U.Posies thought they were ready to record their third album.Jon and Ken later decided that Rick's songs didn't fit with the band and asked him to leave.The remaining members spent the next few months developing new songs, then in early 1992 began recording their third album with Don Fleming.Though Jon and Ken played bass on the album, Dave Fox joined to play bass in subsequent live shows.During the European tour, a fight between Ken and Mike prompted Mike to later leave the band.It wasn't long before the band again entered the studio to begin work on a fourth album.After spending most of 1996 and the early part of 1997 on tour in the U.Europe, the band returned home and shifted focus to other projects outside the Posies.This Sounds Like Goodbye.All of this solo work caused many to wonder if the Posies were finished as a band.Instead, the band returned to the studio with the intent of writing their last chapter by rerecording a dozen unused older songs.CD box set comprised almost entirely of unreleased demos, outtakes, and live tracks from throughout the Posies' career.After playing drums in Jon's band, Darius Minwalla took over on drums for the Posies in early 2001.That summer, Matt Harris of Oranger replaced Joe on bass.The new rhythm section quickly learned the band's back catalog in time for a US tour that summer.They wrote and recorded a new batch of songs relatively quickly and Every Kind Of Light was released in June of 2005.US and Europe lasted through the end of the year.Japanese tour was scheduled for the summer of 2006.Ken remarried and now lives in France with his wife and child, though he travels often to play with the Posies, Big Star, R.Frosting On The Beater (DGC Records, 1993).Dream All Day: The Best of the Posies (DGC Records, 2000).In Case You Didn't Feel Like Plugging In (Casa Recording Co.Definite Door (DGC Records, 1994).Nice Cheekbones And A PhD.Houston Party Records, 2001).Soundtrack contributions
