Youth Lagoon
Precious memories of the past, personal thoughts and feelings explored via a unique brand of melancholic pop.
Overview
Trevor Powers is the man behind the Youth Lagoon moniker, under which he explores precious memories of the past, personal thoughts and feelings via his unique brand of melancholic pop.
His first collection of songs became known as The Year Of Hibernation, Powers’ strong debut, which saw drifting melodies flirt with sample-heavy rhythms. His lyrics are highly evocative with such expressive lines as, “When I was seventeen my mother said to me, 'Don’t stop imagining, the day that you do is that day that you die'”.
Powers was last in the country in February where he played a string of sold out shows. He now returns to Australia for Splendour In The Grass as well as a couple of sideshows, bringing with him a stellar line-up of supporting artists, including Sures and Bearhug.
