A two-month-old song from a Mission artist has become the biggest music hit to come out of the Fraser Valley in recent history.
Isaiah Faber, known as Powfu, released BԪַdeath bed (coffee for your head) ft. beabadoobeeBԪַ in April 2020, and the song been heard by over 440 million people on Spotify.
The music video, much of it filmed at AbbotsfordBԪַs Mill Lake Park, has reached over 90 million views on Youtube. FaberBԪַs other music videos are also filmed at various Abbotsford locations.
In order to become the Fraser ValleyBԪַs biggest hit of all time, it would have to surpass the Carly Rae JepsenBԪַs smash 2013 hit BԪַCall Me Maybe,BԪַ which has over 1.2 billion views on Youtube.
It seems music runs in the family as FaberBԪַs father, David, is the lead singer of the Canadian punk band Faber Drive. Faber Drive, also hailing from Mission, was nominated for a Juno Award in 2008.
