Couldn’t live without it, definitely couldn’t travel without it. There’s something so magical about listening to a great album while on the train or driving, its like you’re on two journeys at once.
I sat next to a guy on the train yesterday who was watching SNL on his phone for the entire 3hr journey and skipping all the musical guests! Tapping through Paul McCartney so he could lightly chuckle at Colin Jost. He was looking down the entire journey and missing the beautiful greens and brutalist greys passing by. Such a shame! Wouldn’t happen if he was listening to Wings' unfairly maligned 1973 sophomore album Red Rose Speedway.

Trevor Powers has always been a distinctly detailed songwriter, able to create worlds within his songs that push well beyond their runtime. On Rarely Do I Dream, Powers harnesses this to craft a sprawling, mystical account of his own life - part album, part audio memoir.
Sonically, this is suitable dreamy and nostalgic, weaving his own home video audio throughout and thoughtfully layering his compositions within the static. It's like if the end of Scott Street was an album. There's a tactility to the sound that realises the stories being told whether they are suburban and personal, or mythical and folkloric.
What a voice, what an album. Glad Powers is back.

it's really good.
I saw MJ Lenderman wearing a t shirt with his name on it on his tiny desk concert and saved this album from a few years ago.
I haven't been able to put it down. Thomas' songs are open hearted and vividly drawn, dancing between hyper specific and gloriously universal. Wellswood steeps it's Americana-folk songs in a wide berth of influences, flavouring each with soul, grunge, indie, etc.
All Is Well is a beautiful blend of folk and RnB connecting the soulful essence of each genre flawlessly. Moon is another standout, a sprawling 7 minute nostalgic cowboy epic about the cycle of escaping and coming right back.
Wellswood is well worth your time. Check it out!
