Born somewhere between a roadside revival and a gas station vision quest… the Portland collective Family Worship Center has spent the last few years spreading their strange gospel across the land, and enough people on stage to legally qualify as a small municipality. Some say they found a box of forgotten tapes from a mysterious religious group. Others say they simply spent too much time listening to yacht rock in a candlelit basement.
The truth… remains unclear.
The truth… remains unclear.
“Among the bustling indie music scene in Portland, Oregon, Family Worship Center has carved out a niche and steadily built a following for their big-band take on Southern rock and roll. With a visual and musical aesthetic that falls somewhere between the cult-like technicolor of the Polyphonic Spree and the piano-driven rock of Leon Russell, Family Warship Center stands out like a sore thumb in the Pacific Northwest landscape, and this is a welcome burst of color.” – Glide Magazine
