Idaho-based Trevor Powers’ dreamy, brittle and emotive songs have been getting increased buzz on music blogs over the course of the year. His debut album The Year Of Hibernation on Fat Possum was recorded in his bedroom but sets its sights far beyond those four walls. As an example, ‘Seventeen’ is intimate but supremely widescreen. This unofficial video is by Kasey Lum.
You can hear the whole record below and watch the video for ‘Montana’ . It’s a beaut.Buy it at Fat Possum.
