Jun 24 2009

Louder Than The Music can exclusively reveal that Portland will release "Tonight" as the first single from their latest album "These Broken Hands".The track will be released on 24th August 2009 and avaliable from all the usual mp3 download sites.

These Broken Hands was produced and mixed by Dan Wheeler and also Kipper, who has produced other artists such as Sting, Gary Numan, Mary J Blige and American Idol winner Clay Aitkin.

The band have also announced that their first album, Pretend To Be Stronger, is available to download on iTunes.

Portland started back in 2004 and after a year or two of gigging in and around the Midlands, they decided to make a short recording of their best tracks at the Raindance Music Studios. Various session musicians were drafted in for the recording of the 7 track EP, 'Pretend To Be Stronger'. This recording paved the way for them to sign a 3 album deal with independent UK label The Stereo Tree in 2008, the first of which is the recently released 'These Broken Hands'.
