Lyrics:
Claims, they crawled from those clouds
And over mountains cried,
Into the streams where they ran the length of
Past and time that called out,
With their hands beside you,
As all the people shouted
Up to the northern territories.
My, they glowed like a bug,
Burning at the ends
Of sheet covered crowns
Whose only words were
Wicked mumbles that shake unstable,
Manners brought these thoughts about you.
Lights up like flies and ants that dip about
And aim to.
Just swallow us up like them bread baked gums.
Now I remain glowing at the ends,
I remain glowing at the ends,
Its because its you theyve become.
Shade drifts around, southern where the sheets are
Growing ash and steeple factories.
Old boy, youll never know just what they think,
It never finds you.
Cheap work finding pockets
Only when were aimed to.
Just swallow them up like the bread baked gums.
Now I remain glowing at the ends,
I remain glowing at the ends,
Its because its you theyve become.
These lights were waves that spilled through my space, (In the plains.)
Where no one knows if theyll ever need again. (I want to.)
These lights were waves that spilled through my space, (In the plains.)
Where no one knows if theyll ever need again. (I want to.)
These lights were waves that spilled through my space, (In the plains.)
Where no one knows if theyll ever need again. (I want to.)
Come and get and take me home.
These lights were waves that spilled through my space, (In the plains.)
Where no one knows if theyll ever need again. (I want to.)
Come and get and take me home.
These lights were waves that spilled through my space, (In the plains.)
Where no one knows if theyll ever need again.

Portugal. The Man took 2017 by the horns after a considerably long gap, between records. They spent years working on an album called Gloomin + Doomin before later developing what would become known as their latest studio album WOODSTOCK. Fate struck lead singer, John Gourley, twice. First, John got some parental tough love from his old man. “What’s taking so long to finish the album?,” John’s dad asked. “Isn’t that what bands do? Write songs and then put them out?” The whole thing got John thinking about why the band seemed to be stuck on a musical elliptical machine from hell and more importantly, about how to get off of it. Second, John found his dad’s ticket stub from the original 1969 Woodstock music festival, which ultimately knocked something loose in his head. He realized that, in the same tradition of bands from that era, Portugal. The Man needed to speak out about the world crumbling around them.
With these two ideas converging, the band made a seemingly bat-shit-crazy decision: they took all of the work they had done for the three years prior and threw it out. The band went back to the studio – working with John Hill, Danger Mouse and longtime collaborator Casey Bates. In this new-found creative territory, the album that became WOODSTOCK rolled out naturally from there. Fast forward to present day and it was impossible to escape the album’s first single “Feel It Still,” which dominated the charts and radio airwaves in 2017. The 6X Platinum Certified hit reigned at #1 at nearly all radio formats, including Top 40, as well as Alternative, where the song held the chart’s top spot for a mind-blowing 20 weeks, breaking the record for most weeks at #1. Yes, you read that right. 5 guys from Wasilla, Alaska who have played nearly 1,500 shows in their career broke Alternative radio records and had a #1 song at Pop radio. Billboard Magazine even went as far as to call the song, “the unexpected rock crossover hit of 2017,” while Rolling Stone listed it as “one of the best songs of 2017.” AND THEN…the band kicked off 2018 by winning a GRAMMY Award for “Feel It Still.” WOODSTOCK has since been certified gold, as has their second single “Live In The Moment”.

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 scene coupled with the most hardcore work ethic. Alaskan are tough and this band was tougher.
Driving from city to city, buying bulk bags of rice and a couple times a week splurging with some items with their Taco Bell - Feed The Beat bucks, PTM was committed. They ended 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.
Run the full set, one time through. No re-takes. No overdubs. Just the band in its natural form.
What next? In typical PTM fashion they were heading into the studio a couple weeks later to record their next album “The Satanic Satanist” and “Oregon City Sessions” got put on a shelf. Why release old music when you can release new music. There it sat for over a decade. A select few saw the full film. The band, their manager or tour manager would occasionally offer to go over to people’s homes screen it for them. Sometimes in the parking lot the band would screen a handful of songs to the local supporters. They forged friendships but whenever asked the answer would always be “yeah, we will release that at some point”.
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

Lyrics:
Sell me, Im a skeptical boy
And if you need help Im not easy to find
We met the man in the deep, deep south
With the gritty smile and the dirty old church mouth
Papers, read and weigh down the stands
Its cold out here and waiting weighs on this man
Still not full, I need a pass and a page
March stepped some steps and it spoke some words
Thinking about that dirty old church mouth
(Chorus)
Ill feel better when that sleep comes and finds me
(My salt was skin of maps made whole
Gotta get out, gotta sell this soul)
Ill feel better when that sleep comes and finds me
(Stroll about through these forks and roads
Find me in the pines, in the sleet and cold)
Shine on, in this brilliant paced pulse
All I need in this life is this love
We met the man in the deep, deep south
With with the shifty teeth smile
That poured about the churchs mouth
(Chorus)
Fill me up with money-gold, aint nobody ever needs me
Take me to the steeple, let the preachers hands abathe me
Im going down, down to the river, aint nobody needs me
(Fill me up with money-gold, aint nobody ever needs me)
Out in the water let those mans hands abathe me
(Take me to the steeple, let the preachers hands abathe me)
Down, down, down, down, down
(Fill me up with money-gold, aint nobody ever needs me
Take me to the steeple, let the preachers hands abathe me)
We met the man in the deep, deep south
With the gritty smile and the dirty old church mouth
Ill be better when that sleep comes and finds me
Ill be better when that sleep comes and finds me
Ill be better when that sleep comes and finds me
(Fill me up with money-gold, aint nobody ever needs me)
Ill be better when that sleep comes and finds me
(Fill me up with money-gold, aint nobody ever needs me)

Lyrics:
I watched the words drip from you
And pour from your mouth like a sieve
Ill end like I did begin
Jump rope the stars in a game
But you were there too
We spit from the Moon
And found their heads down below
I cant make no sense of this
I cant make no sense of this at all
Sad inconsistencies you see
You find yourself lonely
But right next to me
Well I was there too
Just as lonely as you
We found their heads down below
I cant make no sense of this
I cant make no sense of it at all
So, whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?
And when the summer ends, yeah
Ill be there hiding
And when the sun rises, yeah
Ill stay warm forever
Many have come before, many have been
Where will we be? When will it end?
Many have come before, many have been
Where will we be?
You were there too
We spit from the Moon
And found their heads down below
I cant make no sense of this
I cant make no sense of this at all
So, whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?
Whats this young man to do?

Lyrics:
My religion is
A piano hanging over my head about to break free
And I see it moving
Gotta pick up the groove and let go
Everyone I know
Is running from the afterlife
These days they make it sound sweet
If this is the last dance you can count on me
One two three four
Everybody get on the dance floor
Five six seven eight
Its four am and I am wide awake
One two three four
Everybody get on the dance floor
Five six seven eight
I pray the lord my soul to take
Wait my phone is ringing
Paint a tunnel on the wall escape before the anvil falls
Gotta keep it moving
Gotta pick up the groove and let go
Everyone I know
Is running from the afterlife
These days they make it sound sweet
If this is the last dance you can count on me
One two three four
Everybody get on the dance floor
Five six seven eight
Its four am and I am wide awake
One two three four
Everybody get on the dance floor
Five six seven eight
I pray the lord my soul to take
The light is going out
The light in my life is going out
The light is going out
The light in my life is going out
The light is going out
The light in my life is going out
The light is going out
The light in my life is going out
One two three four
Five six seven eight
Gotta pick up the groove and let go

Kids at the Mercado on the east end
Dusting off the subs to acid house
Don’t know why and I don’t need a reason
If I had it all
I’d still be laughing when it falls
Yeah you already know
So high feelin fine
Baby close your eyes
See the world’s alright
All I want to find
Is a little place for my girls
It’s the summer of love
You already know
It’s the summer of love
You already know
No one ever said it would be easy no
If I had had it all
I’d still be laughing when it falls
Yeah you already know
Turn on tune in drop out
Just another brick in the wall of doubt
Don’t know why the caged bird sings
But baby we can find out how
So high feelin’ fine
Baby close your eyes
See the world’s alright
All I want to find
Is a little place for my girls
It’s the summer of love
You already know
It’s the summer of love
You already know
No one ever said it would be easy
No one ever said I’d be all alone
I just wanna live my life breezy
I guess that’s just how it goes
Yeah you already know
So high feelin fine
Baby close your eyes
See the world’s alright
All I want to find
Is a little place for my girls
It’s the summer of love
You already know
It’s the summer of love
You already know

Lyrics:
Stepping steps of floating floats
That float above such shining notes
They know just where we should rest
Policed and waiting patiently
We knew where wed gone and where wed be
We know this should never drown the seeds
(Just where their feet are moving
Just why why their feet are moving.)
My mind is all
My mind is all
My mind is all gone
My mind is all
My mind is all
My mind is all gone
Deaf and dumb but fluent speech
Speaking speaks and listening
While eating piled tangled sugar weaves
(Just where their feet are moving
Just why why their feet are moving.)
My mind is all
My mind is all
My mind is all gone
My mind is all
My mind is all
My mind is all gone
You are my hands, do as I please
I feel my body moving, I feel these feet a-moving
You are my hands, do as I please
I feel my body moving, I feel these feet a-moving
A messy mess of fruits and pies
That dance about these aging eyes
They know just what becomes of seeds
(Just where their feet are moving
Just why why their feet are moving.)
A busy suit of dirty boys
Feeling rude in lazy lies
Oh my, my, my
Oh, my, my, my my
My mind is all
My mind is all
My mind is all
You are my hands, do as I please
I feel my body moving, I feel these feet a-moving
(My mind is all
My mind is all
My mind is all)
You are my hands, do as I please
I feel my body moving, I feel these feet a-moving
(My mind is all
My mind is all
My mind is all)
You are my hands, do as I please
I feel my body moving, I feel these feet a-moving

The 6X Platinum Certified hit reigned at #1 at nearly all radio formats, including Top 40, as well as Alternative, where the song held the chart’s top spot for a mind-blowing 20 weeks, breaking the record for most weeks at #1. Yes, you read that right. 5 guys from Wasilla, Alaska who have played nearly 1,500 shows in their career broke Alternative radio records and had a #1 song at Pop radio. Billboard Magazine even went as far as to call the song, “the unexpected rock crossover hit of 2017,” while Rolling Stone listed it as “one of the best songs of 2017.” AND THEN…the band kicked off 2018 by winning a GRAMMY Award for “Feel It Still.” WOODSTOCK has since been certified gold, as has their second single “Live In The Moment”.
