Portishead Starting Work On Their Fourth Album
Speaking to the BBC, Portishead multi-instrumentalist Geoff Barrows said that he’ll begin writing the band’s fourth album this summer, that the band has signed with a new label, and how music festivals can boost album sales:
“I’m writing for Portishead through July and August… I just want to bang on and get another record done… It’s with a major. It’s with the biggest record company in the world. It’s with people we trust, which with a band is the most important thing… We did the Third record, it did incredibly well. We got very little support from the UK as we don’t represent a certain demographic of people, but we did Coachella [festival] and that was amazing.”
