Portugal. The Man

In 2011, when Portugal. The Man performed 'People Say' live at The Met in Pawtucket, they had just released their album 'In the Mountain in the Cloud.' This album marked a significant milestone in their career, as it brought them mainstream recognition with catchy singles like 'Got It All (This Can't Be Living Now).' Interestingly, this live recording showcases their ability to blend rock, pop, and psychedelic influences, capturing the lush, multi-layered sound that characterized their work at that time. During this period, the band was gaining momentum, gearing up for a broader audience while still keeping their indie roots intact. The energetic performance not only highlights the band's dynamic stage presence but also hints at the collaborative spirit that has become a hallmark of their music.
