Everyone needs a moment, for Trevor Beld Jimenez that moment arrives with his solo debut I Like It Here. LA's finest singer/songwriter and best kept secret was born in Southern Cal ifornia in the 80s, raised on a steady diet of AM radio. Soon youthful adventures like exploring the coasts, hiking the hills and Little League gave into a full-time obsession of music. If you've been paying any attention to the southern California music scene the last decade or so, you already know Trevor from his bands Tall Tales & The Silver Linings and Parting Lines, as his contribution to projects from the likes of Fruit Bats, Kacey Johansing and Dios, and he plays a key role as co-writer and drummer for California rockers Gospelbeach. I Like It Here is a classic Southern California rock record that weaves between guitar solo-driven power anthems and softer rock ballads. Trevor's songs are infused with honey-colored melodies and old soul lyricism, inspiring hope in the hearts of listeners. Trevor believes in every word he's singing - peace and true love, beauty, family, grace - and for the moment, the listener does too. Show more
