2 Cd

On March 16, 2013 Jason Molina passed away of natural causes after a long-standing battle with alcohol. Jason's death shook the world of many music-lovin' souls and the music world as a whole. At 39 years old, he left behind a remarkable song catalog and lasting impression on anyone who heard his music with Songs: Ohia and Magnolia Electric Co. Starting as a heavy metal bass player from Loraine, Ohio, he became one of the most influential and iconic singer-songwriters in indie music.

''Farewell Transmission the Music of Jason Molina'' is a collection of Molina favorites performed by My Morning Jacket (with a track exclusive to this collection), Magnolia Memorial Company (formerly Songs:Ohia), Murder by Death, Communist Daughter, Enemy Planes and more! Farewell Transmission also contains new music from Molina's bandmates - Memorial Electric Company including ''Arm in Arm'', a tribute to their fallen bandmate and beloved Molina live concert staple, ''Trouble In Mind (Fade To Blue)'', previously unreleased. Rock the Cause Records, a music based nonprofit, is donating all net proceeds to MusiCares. To learn more about the charitable impact of this release visit irockthecause.org
