PORTUGAL. THE MAN - OREGON CITY SESSIONS
Portugal. The Man had been a band for just over 2 years and in that
period, they had released 3 full-lengths, 1 EP, and a couple
standalone singles. In that same period, they had also performed
just shy of 500 shows. This young band from Alaska was riding a
creative wave that is rarely seen coupled with the most hardcore
work ethic. Alaskans are tough and this band was tougher. They
ended the tour in December of 2008 and instead of taking a much
needed break made the decision that they needed to record the
culmination of what their live performance had become. Finding a
rare gem of a studio in the suburbs of Portland. They piled in to the
studio with all their live gear and a handful of friends with handheld
cameras. Longtime collaborator and filmmaker Graham (Baclagon)
Agcaolli and engineer/mixer Jacob Portrait (who would later join
Unknown Mortal Orchestra) would help to document. 2021. The
band has been off the road for well over a year, by far the longest
break from the road since they started and the time just seems
right. Here is "Oregon City Sessions" dug out of the archives.
Untouched, unchanged from the day it was finished. It is a time
capsule of a band finding its way. A snapshot of young raw talent
before they won awards, before they sold millions of records, before
they headlined festivals. Just a couple kids from Alaska wanting to
travel the world and play music.
