Portugal. The Man’s SHISH has arrived. The Alaskan-bred, Portland-based band’s 10th studio album, released on their own imprint KNIK/Thirty Tigers, finds Portugal. The Man on the edge of discovery - pulling the curtain back further. Across its ten distinct tracks, the band leans into discomfort, vulnerability, and the warped pop sensibility that only Portugal. The Man can offer.
SHISH represents a period of intense reappraisals for frontman John Gourley, both in music and in life and it combines Gourley’s most revealing writing yet, not only about the lessons he learned being raised in Alaska, but also some of the lessons he’s already learned raising his daughter, Frances, who was diagnosed with one of the world’s rarest genetic disorders four years ago. With SHISH, Gourley uses Portugal. The Man to sing about the more righteous world he has witnessed at home and that he now envisions for the rest of us—taking only what we need, advocating for others at every turn, and sharing the best of what we’ve learned to give everyone a chance to be better still.
Last week Portugal. The Man shared their fresh rendition of KPop Demon Hunter’s global hit ‘Golden,’ available now exclusively on Amazon Music. Rolling Stone wrote that their version “turns it on its head as a softer, acoustic ballad that almost gives it a new meaning.” Listen to ‘Golden’ on Amazon here.
To celebrate the album’s release, the band will head out on their North American headline tour bringing the new record to cities all across the country — including sold out nights in Portland, Los Angeles, and more. In addition to the original tour dates, they announced a limited run of underplay shows called ‘The Lords of Portland Present Portugal. The Man’ that’ll feature rare performances from the band’s catalogue, covers, extended jams, special guests, and a limited run of merch in small venues! In early 2026, the band will head across the pond for a month-long tour across the UK. Find the full list of tour dates below to find a show near you - tickets here.
