Eponymous debut album will be released 11/5 via Fat Possum.

Idahoan Trevor Powers, a 22-year old songwriter with an atmospheric alt-folk sensibility, has signed his Youth Lagoon project to the Fat Possum imprint. His debut LP, The Year of Hibernation, will be released by the imprint on September 27, 2011.
In the meantime, Powers is sharing a teaser track, “Montana,” on his Soundcloud page. Check out the embed below.
On my last visit to my brother’s home, my 3-year old niece told me about her new favorite music star – Dr. Stringz.

She and her folks then showed me the good doctor in question: Andrew Bird, making a guest appearance in 2007 on Jack’s Big Music Show.
Bird’s kept the segment’s musical number in his repertoire, and often plays it when he gives concerts. It’s a toe-tapper that appeals to “children of all ages.”
Wavves shot a video for the noisily effusive song “No Good Kids” while on tour in Europe.
