In the 1990's grunge exploded, hurtling the tight-knight bands that populated the bars of sleepy Seattle into the spotlight glare of the global stage.

But fame can be a beast that consumes; tearing bands and friendships apart, leaving many incapable of dealing with the pressure and attention that accompanies worldwide acclaim. Now, Mike McCready, the Hall of Fame guitarist from Pearl Jam, Temple of the Dog and Mad Season, tells this story of what it was like to be a band in Seattle from 1983-1993 as their world changed irrevocably.

FAREWELL TO SEASONS captures the lived experience of that time. The glory and the heartbreak as it asks the unanswerable question. was it worth it?

This Deluxe Edition comes packaged with a soundtrack of new and original songs, created by McCready to serve as an artifact recording produced by the lead character, Dave Williams.
