WESTWORD l Trevor Hall Takes a Break From Spirituality to Express His Rage
Singer-songwriter Trevor Hall says his music is often categorized as “spiritual” or focused on love as a virtue, but he has sometimes felt like he wasn’t allowed to express his frustration or anger because that wasn't what was expected of him as an artist.
Bearing that in mind, Hall’s latest single, “Fire on Your House,” marks a stylistic departure from much of his repertoire. He says it comes from his nearly two decades in the music industry and the hurt and pain that can come from people who take advantage or don’t have an artist’s best interest at heart. He wrote the song a few years ago but just released it this month.
