Verboten writes charming, folky pop songs about disillusionment.
Songwriter Foster Powell pairs bright, melodic hooks with poetic
lyrics and a sound indebted to 90s-era alt rock. The band has toured
for several years in the Northeast USA, recently relocating to
Bellingham, WA and releasing their first full-length, Life Expectancy,
in 2024. For fans of Belle and Sebastian, Elliott Smith, Andy Shauf.
