Portland - Champain (Coloured Vinyl) (LP)

‘Champain’ is Portland 3rd album and the first collection of songs written after singer-songwriter Jente Pironet’s battle with brain cancer. It’s an album that wears the scars of recent years on its sleeves, but at the same time expresses an irrepressible zest for life. It reads as an utterly honest travel diary of a wandering soul, from stage to hospital to writing desk and back again. Of falling—hard and deep—and getting back up again. Of a singer and a band who persevere. And the result shows: Portland has never sounded more energetic, mature, and rich than on these 10 new songs.
