SPELLS is escaping the confines of status quo. Rather than taking life as it comes,
Trevor Tillery (SPELLS) is holding life up to the light and examining it, questioning it
and determining what’s true about it. Then, he’s creating melodic electro-pop that doesn’t
fall on the grid of formulaic songwriting.
His heavily orchestrated pieces are wrought with intrigue and surprise, as though
SPELLS once wrote a traditional song, pressed the pause button to evaluate it and then
put it all back together to showcase the most beautiful pieces of life and music.
On his debut EP, Escapist, SPELLS writes about a yearning for something beyond the
modern world. He’s rebelling against the technology-saturated realm that adds layer upon
layer of complication to life, causing dreams to become a small glimmer in the back of
people’s minds as they chase the material.
“These are the kind of songs I write,” he reveals. “These are the things that I’m
constantly thinking about and haunted by. And music is an outlet where I can get that out
– an outlet to hopefully get other people thinking and start knocking down walls.”
