Portugal. The Man @ Stable Hall

Portugal. The Man put on a breathtaking performance on February 9, 2024 at Stable Hall in San Antonio, TX. Warming up the crowd for the performance of a lifetime was SNACKTIME.


SNACKTIME

SNACKTIME is Philadelphia’s already beloved seven-piece band. Blazing a path cut from their soul, funk, punk, jazz, hip-hop, and R&B influences. Coming together during the height of the pandemic, the group began performing free shows that combined their love of music and food in Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square. They quickly amassed huge crowds and became a symbol of positivity and lockdown release, while showcasing the richness of their city’s musical history and community. This progressed to sold-out headlining shows, curation of neighborhood festivals, multiple appearances at Philadelphia 76ers halftime shows, and slots at major music festivals.

Portugal. The Man

The Alaska-born, Portland-based Portugal. The Man has carved out a unique niche on the pop landscape. Balancing their artfully left of center, neo-psychedelic indie rock with hooky dance, R&B, hip-hop, and electronic traditions. Debuting in 2006, they delivered a series of independent albums throughout the late 2000s, touring hard and eventually signing a deal with Atlantic for 2010’s Billboard 200-charting In the Mountain in the Cold. The band’s diligence paid off during their major-label tenure, with each subsequent album gaining them a wider fan base and increased acclaim.

On 2013’s “Evil Friends,” they forged a collaboration with producer Danger Mouse, who helped out on the group’s politically driven eighth album, 2017’s Woodstock. The album yielded the Grammy-winning hit single “Feel It Still.” Following an extended hiatus, they returned in 2023 with Chris Black Changed My Life. The album dedicated to the group’s friend, filmmaker Chris Black, who died in 2019. “The band was in shambles and this record is the first time I feel I made a complete record; a complete thought about our world crumbling around us and the journey back,”(Spotify).
