Youth Lagoon – the project of 22-year-old Boise, ID native Trevor Powers – has announced the release of The Year of Hibernation, out on September 27, 2011. The lead track from the album, “Montana,” is available for download in this post.
“Youth Lagoon isn’t me.” says Powers. “It’s merely a part of me. I was in and out of different bands in high school and always tried to define myself by what music I played. I tried to find a sense of meaning by being in a band. But it wasn’t until this last year – when I realized I was more than just music – that I was able to create music that means something to me. And that is Youth Lagoon.”
Youth Lagoon was recently signed to Fat Possum Records.
