Youth Lagoon presents ‘Savage Hills Ballroom’
Youth Lagoon’s – aka Idaho-native Trevor Powers - new LP, ‘Savage Hills Ballroom,’ is out today on Fat Possum behind some of the best reviews of his career and spotlights with NPR, Fader, Vice, SPIN, Nylon more.
Powers debuted his brand new backing band earlier this week with a sold out warm up show at Brooklyn’s Rough Trade, which Brooklyn Vegan called “fuller and tighter in every way.” Powers is on the road throughout the fall, headlining some of the biggest venues of his career.
* “Shows of strength and vulnerability abound on ‘Savage Hills Ballroom’...his most formidable work yet.” – NPR First Listen
* “A creative leap... Youth Lagoon's most purposeful, composed work yet...this album is intentionally and impeccably curated from start to finish.” –All Songs Considered
* “A gorgeously grim meditation on loneliness, isolation, and the barely-concealed phoniness of the adult world.” – Vice Noisey
* “Powers adopts an incantatory, mystic approach to his vocals, almost summoning the melody in a manner akin to Antony or Kate Bush.” –Pitchfork
*”A groovier vibe than anything he’s put out to date” – New Yorker
