OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode we sit down with the immensely creative co-founder of The Posies, Ken Stringfellow. A songwriter and guitarist whose harmonies and songs have been a critical element to some of the best power pop to ever come from the Pacific Northwest, Ken and Posies co-founder Jon Auer, were part of the resurrection of Big Star, a band that was hugely influential on both of them. Beyond Big Star and Posies, Ken’s released several solo records, further evidence of his prowess as a songwriter and performer.
In this conversation navigate some of the tougher chapters in his story — but don't really get into the public controversy that has surrounded him in recent years. We do talk about his recent cancer diagnosis— not as sensational headlines, but as parts of a complex life lived in the spotlight and in the studio. This conversation is at once a celebration of enduring musicianship, a reflection on resilience and mortality, and an honest look at what it means to keep creating through highs and hardships. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just discovering his work, this episode offers insight, honesty, and some perspectives whose adult life has been committed to creating some of the most timeless music to come out of Washington State.
