PWRFL Power


Last night I was at the Vera Project with some friends seeing Mt. Eerie, the Moools, Oregon Donor and PWRFL Power. Oregon Donor were average, Moools were awesome and Mt. Eerie was enchanting and all that, but I'm blogging about local talent PWRFL Power today.
I saw him at the Capitol Hill Block Party, and you can look at that post for some videos I took from that show, but since then I was so hyped on him I bought his CD and I've been listening to it a lot lately. He put on a great 6 song show last night with his brand new electric guitar which gave him a
really cool sound, I think I may have liked it better. His complicated finger picking patterns sounded strangely fit with the subtle distortion. Sometimes his childish vocals sunk a little low in the mix and you couldn't hear his wonderfully simple lyrics, but besides that it was flawless (oh, it was a litle out of tune at times).



and some MP3's I really recomend
It's Okay
Let Me Teach You How to Hold Chopsticks
Let's Play Drums

And someone asked for this Death Cab track. It's an REM cover
Driver 8
I think it's OK. Nothing special, but worth the listen. It's from some radio session, I forget.
