Verboten

Verboten is the musical project of songwriter Foster Powell, with bandmates and frequent collaborators Amy Anders (bass) and Daniel O’Connor (drums). The three-piece band formed in Vermont and has toured extensively throughout the Northeast USA.

Verboten ’s first release, a 6-song album titled Strange Rehab Ch. 2, was recorded and produced mostly solo by Powell in quarantine, with collaborator Jason Burger handling the drum parts. Strange Rehab Ch. 2 released digitally on April 7, 2023, with a limited run of tapes coming in November 2023 via Ghost Mountain Records.

Verboten’s music has been called “powerful… inviting, full of surprise, lyricism and grit.”
