Singer-songwriters are a hit or miss with me. Perhaps it’s my short attention span, but when a song’s instrumental duties are carried by an acoustic guitar, I often lose interest. As is not the case with the likes of Trevor Hall, a soulful dude from South Carolina. Trevor will be at State Theatre in St. Pete on Wednesday, October 14, and you or everybody you know should experience the man’s plucking spirit and radiant voice. Enjoy.

Trevor Hall’s latest album, released back in August, is tilted KALA. Now, I don’t know what “KALA” means, and a quick Internet search gives a variety of definitions: a Hindu goddess, a demon, the black panther from Jungle Book, and a bunch of small villages in the Middle East. I don’t know about you, but just reading and saying “KALA” somehow sounds right with Hall’s music. Whatever the true meaning of the album’s title is, listening to it puts me at peace. His voice is soothing. Life seems to slow down to the tempo of the music. Everything’s cool.
On Wednesday, Trevor will be joined by two other talents, Will Evans and Christina Holmes. Evans is a roots musician. His songs are generally more upbeat than Hall’s and will keep you vibing as he switches instruments from drums to guitar to (my personal favorite) bongos. Holmes writes feel good tunes that wouldn’t sound strange in a Tom’s commercial. Imagine the uplifting spark of Katy Perry’s “Firework” without all the the corniness.
