More About Portugal. The Man
Earlier this summer, Portugal. The Man dropped their surprise EP uLu Selects Vol #2, which found the band pulling back the curtain, delivering a blisteringly honest collection of sonic exorcisms. Across its four tracks, the band leaned fully into discomfort, vulnerability, and the warped pop sensibility that only Portugal. The Man can offer.
Portugal. The Man soared to new heights in 2017 with the release of their now RIAA-certified Platinum album, Woodstock. The album was marked by the astounding success of their infectious single, “Feel It Still,” which earned the group a GRAMMY for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance,” a 7x RIAA Platinum certification, a record setting 20-week residency at #1 on alternative radio, and an inescapable presence on the Top 40 airwaves.
Alongside the shine of their myriad of musical accomplishments lies the group’s long-standing passion for social justice. In fact, this is precisely the intersection in which Portugal. The Man thrives; throughout their career, the band has consistently exemplified how to deeply commit to both artistry and activism. This ultimately inspired them to launch the Pass The Mic Foundation in 2020, focused on universal issues related to human rights, community health, and the environment, with an emphasis on causes directly impacting Indigenous Peoples, including Alaska Native Health (providing the highest quality of health services for Alaska Native people) and Seeding Sovereignty (radicalizing and disrupting colonized spaces through land, body, food sovereignty work and more). The band is also committed to raising awareness and vital funds for the DHDDS community through the Frances Changed My Life campaign. Created in honor of Gourley’s daughter Frances, the campaign aims to support families affected by DHDDS by helping ease both the emotional and financial burdens that come with rare diseases. Over the past couple of years, the band has raised and donated over a million dollars across both charities.
Portugal. The Man have also partnered with an array of organizations such as National Coalition Against Censorship, The Skatepark Project (helping communities build public skate parks for youth in underserved communities), March for Our Lives (Gun Reform), Keep Oregon Well (Mental Health), and Protect Our Winters (Climate Change), to name just a few. In 2022, the band furthered their passion for activism when they launched PTM’s NIGHT OUT initiative, supporting disabled fans requiring ADA access.
