Fog Lake is the musical alias of Canadian singer-songwriter Aaron Powell. Powell began writing and recording songs in his hometown of Glovertown, Newfoundland. In 2014, Powell moved from cassette label Birdtapes to become part of the New York based Orchid Tapes. Powell's recordings have been described as "a complex collage of nebulous angst and heartfelt nostalgia".




History


Powell began working on music during high-school years in Glovertown, Newfoundland. The project began as ambient experiments, sampling and covers to "highly introspective, original recordings". Powell's music is crafted in DIY format, on shoestring budgets.
Powell's first release was a compilation entitled There's a Spirit, There's a Soul, composed of pop/ambient songs recorded in high school. The project began to develop a following after the release of Fog Lake's first full-length album, Farther Reaches, which was released independently in January 2013. Powell released the EP Holy Cross in June 2013 via Birdtapes. Powell then followed up Farther Reaches with a second full-length record, Virgo Indigo, released February 2014. It received coverage from websites such as The Fader and No Fear of Pop. Powell continued to produce self-produced, DIY records such as Victoria Park in 2015 and Dragonchaser in 2017, both being released strictly on cassette format through Orchid Tapes, receiving coverage from Stereogum, SPIN, VICE and also touring with emo indie-rock Foxing (band).
