Life itself is brothers on walkie-talkies its your dog at the backdoor, or a speeding car off in the distance. Its a gentle voice on the radio. Mom smoking on the porch. The color of sunlight. Its always right under your nose and so easy to miss. Often, a simple treasure. In the fall of 2023, that treasure came in the form of a shoebox filled with home videos Powers found in his parents basement while he was looking for a pre-war harmonica that once belonged to his grandma. When I took the tapes home and popped in the first one, it was my brother Bobby and I at the state fair. I was 4 years old choking on a corn dog, he laughs. If anythings a summary of life, that is. Powers spent the following week recording his favorite moments off the TV Easter egg hunts, backyard baseball, bloody noses, birthday parties, road trips, and all the life in-between. I was like a ghost in a lost memory, says Powers.The vivid intimacies of life and boyhood depicted in Powers home movies not only began shaping his songs, but infusing with them. He started sampling the audio and manipulating it into a kind of musical cinematography, fusing past with future. What I was really consumed with was how much I could zoom in on my actual history, says Powers. I wanted to really make someone feel like they were inside my living room in 1993, but rearrange the furniture a bit. Something about combining that level of hyperreality with fairytales of devils and detectives weirdly felt like the truest way to immortalize these pieces of my family.
