Youth Lagoon
For those in need of some celestial shoegaze this summer.
Overview
For those in need of some celestial shoegaze this summer, but weren’t lucky enough to score tickets to Laneway, Youth Lagoon is bringing his delicious dream pop to Ding Dong Lounge on February 5. After his extremely well-received debut record, The Year of Hibernation, the Idaho-raised Youth Lagoon (aka Trevor Powers) dropped his second album, Wondrous Bughouse, last year and is responsible for a handful of gems such as '17', 'Mute' and 'Dropla'.
His nostalgia-fuelled, reverb-heavy sound is as intriguing as his lyrics, which explore everything from internal conflict to the metaphysical universe. They may sound like heavy topics to delve into, but Youth Lagoon’s music can make you feel as light as a feather. Get swept up in these aural delights before he disappears off into the cosmos, or wherever it is he goes to create that ambient and hypnotic sound.
