Thomas Mullarney III and Jacob Gossett are unstoppable. The New York artists, collectively known as Beacon, have been on a productive hot streak since 2012, and their efforts continue to pay off. "When we weren't writing," Mullarney starts, "we hit the road and didn't really look back. We toured the US five times since The Ways We Separate came out, building this project the old-fashioned way." And Beacon's natural, time-tested process has brought us Escapements, their sophomore album for Ghostly. Whereas the duo's debut was more streamlined and defined, Escapements thrives on an amorphous, free-flowing nature. "We went into this feeling liberated," continues the singer/producer, and Gossett seems to echo his thought: "This record is in part our attempt to formulate what Beacon is going to look and sound like going forward."A1 IM U 4:22 A2 Backbone 4:06 A3 Running Out 3:04 A4 Escapements 3:58 A5 Better or Worse 3:51 B1 Hollow 2:34 B2 Preserve 4:16 B3 Still 3:25 B4 L1 3:26 B5 Cure 4:00 B6 You're Wondering 4:09
