Escaping Pavement

Fueled by the graceful grit and fine fiery energy of their acoustic guitar, mandolin and swooning harmonies, Escaping Pavement integrates the uniquely holistic qualities of folk, bluegrass and Americana music as a way of accessing an elemental peace of mind that’s always quietly waiting for us out there in the wilderness. While they developed their sound over two prior and very distinctly arranged albums, they tried to emphasize the splendors of unplugging every once and a while and taking in the outdoors.
With the release of their third batch of songs this Spring, Escaping Pavement are now embracing a Road Warrior outlook. From here on out, they’ll be consistently striking out for new territories and bold new experiences—particularly by taking on music as their full time profession. Escaping Pavement are making it their prerogative to bring their evocative ballads, twangy rhythmic strums and soaring vocals to as many ears as possible—be it at bars, clubs, or outdoor festivals, or even your living room.
The idea of a “home” for musical Road Warriors is ever-changing. But the question of what a “homecoming” might mean, then, for Road Warriors like them, now, is a more ponderous and amorphous concept that Burns and Markovitz mine to full poetic potential with the songs on their new EP. The intention, and really the lifestyle, now, is to remain as adaptable as ever, and to always be “finding” rather than “searching.” The only certain destination: Escaping the Pavement.
