There are at least two different bands called Posse. 1. Posse is Paul Wittmann-Todd, Sacha Maxim, and Jon Salzman. Posse formed in Seattle in 2010, shortly after Paul & Sacha met at a local show (introduced by then-bassist Nic Heliotis). Jon, a former bandmate from Ziskis, was soon added on drums. In the spring of 2011 Nic left to become a lawyer and Posse moved forward as a 3-piece. At the end of that year, the band went to record with Captain Tripps Ballsington in Olympia, WA, and left the studio with 9 songs.
