YouthAIDS Benefit Concert by Trevor Hall
For 21-year-old Trevor Hall, music is a meditation, an expression of love and a means to bring people together. His reggae-inflected acoustic rock takes on a variety of musical forms and expressions—from ‘60s Brit-pop rhythms and dance-hall beats to cascading lyrics, hip-hop nursery rhymes and Dylanesque sing-song story-telling.

Hall has toured extensively with Steel Pulse, Rusted Root, Keb Mo, Ziggy Marley, Stevie Nicks, Matisyahu and Colbie Caillat to name a few and has also opened for Jason Mraz, Donavon Frankenreiter and Ben Harper.

With a fascination for Indian culture, most of the songs on the new album were inspired by his recent pilgrimage to India, where he visited a number of sacred temples and ashrams. “I felt like I was home for the first time in a long time, I had no idea how amazing it would be. It’s definitely gas for the car. And it all came out in the music.”
