Hurricanes, XO

Our new single “Hurricanes, XO" premiered last week over at The Wild Honey Pie, and is now available for download over at bandcamp.

It's one of my favorite songs on the album and it captures a sort of sound that I had carried around in my head for a while, but had never quite been able to pull off.  The writing and recording of the song was sort of a fun experiment.  It started out with just Brian V and I improvising in the basement. I basically said “let’s play a punk rock number” and then we hit record and just played whatever came to mind. It sounded kind of crazy but really fresh and urgent, so I sent the demo to my friend Vince Bauters. Vince is a poet and a sort of pen pal - I’ve never met him in real life but we’ve been in touch for a while and seem to have a creative understanding and a mutual respect for each other as artists. We collaborated once before on a poem. Anyway - Vince and I started collaborating on the lyrics for the song via google docs.  I had a rough idea of what the song should be about. I wanted it to be a sort of freewheeling/apocalyptic love song.  Like a collection of images, or movie of only words.

As that was happening, I called over my friend Bryan Bruchman - he ended up playing on 4 songs on the new album and is kind of our very own stand in post-rock guitar hero. Bryan recorded some really amazing lead guitar parts over these weird basic tracks, and the feel of the song was starting to come together. Once the lyrics were finally complete (lyrics are the only part of songs I tend to obsess over) I knew the song was just about done but I kind of wanted to get someone to sing the choruses with me, to add to the anthemic quality. I have another friend/postmodern pen pal in Maia Macdonald. Maia makes music as Kid in the Attic and is also in a really great indie pop band called Mitten. She sang on one of the other songs we had recorded earlier on and that had been really awesome. So, I emailed her with a rough mix of “Hurricanes”, and right away she sent back some tracks with these amazing amazing harmonies. Funny all the strange and wonderful ways you can collaborate and function as a band these days.

Anyway - hope you enjoy the track!  The full album will be released on 2/19 via Awkward For Life Records, and is now available for pre-order as a digital download and also on 150 gram translucent red or coke bottle clear vinyl.

Sam Pfeifle, co-founder of the Porland Music Foundation introducing The Toughcats at the Portland Music Foundation's CMJ showcase at Sullivan Hall on October 20th, 2011.

On October 20th, the Portland Music Foundation brought some hard working Maine bands to New York for a CMJ showcase at Sullivan Hall.

I had the chance to speak with the foundation's co-founder Sam Pfeifle, and trustee Bryan Bruchman, about the foundation, how they chose the bands that played the showcase, their local music scene, and Portland, Maine’s connection to Brooklyn.

Could you tell me a little about the Portland Music Foundation?

Pfeifle: Sure. The Portland Music Foundation was founded in 2007 by a group of people who are in the music industry; recording engineers, music writers… I’m a music writer, people who work in studios, people who book bands, managers, musicians… and the idea was just to provide professional development skills, make sure that fewer people in the music scene were making the same mistakes over and over again, so… helping them understand how to book better shows, how to write better press releases, how to get out-of-town gigs, how to work on their web presence… and then we also have a mission to broadcast the strength of the Portland music scene to the rest of the country and the rest of the world, and, obviously that’s what we are trying to do here.
