This is the moniker of San Diego-born Trevor Powers. He has been getting lots of hype and is playing all the big parties (Red 7 Wednesday, Pitchfork Thursday at Mohawk, Aquarium Drunkard also on Thursday, Flamingo Cantina Friday) and has 2 showcases. Definitely one of the buzz bands of the year.
I've heard bits of some of his songs on XM and haven't been too impressed. I discounted it as another avant-garde act that the critics love but the public doesn't. Then I heard this song. It's brilliant. So much feeling in such a simple song. If he's got more songs like this then count me in.

My vote is catch him at Waterloo on Saturday at noon followed by Nada Surf at 1:00. Just please let us take the Shoal Creek route this year. :)
