Teenagers These Days (Trevor Hall)

So I'm listening to Endless Highway, the new tribute album to The Band, and the track 'Life is a Carnival' comes on. I'm liking it and I'm thinking, "Who is this old black blues singer named Trevor Hall that I've never heard of?" So, I get some more information and I find out that Trevor Hall is a 19 yr old white kid from L.A. I'm completely blown away. What a soulful voice this kid has. Go to his MySpace site to hear some of his music. He has a nice, acoustic island sound, reminiscent of Ben Harper. In fact, Leon Mobley, who is Ben Harper's percussionist, plays djembe on some of his tracks. Nice stuff.

He has mucho music on his website also: http://www.trevorhallmusic.com/music/
