FEDERALE: Outlaw Western

Join us for a special summer-ender concert of FEDERALE. Federale is a seven-piece ensemble based in Portland, OR. Spearheaded by longtime Brian Jonestown Massacre bassist Collin Hegna, the band was conceived as an outlet to channel inspiration from 60s & 70s European soundtracks, particularly those from Italy made famous by the Spaghetti Western & Giallo genres.

Federale CD's and concert tend to unfold under the guidance of a larger story arc. 2007s La Rayar is a classic tale of betrayal and vengeance. 2009s Devil In A Boot centers on a small town terrorized by a railroad company barons expansion and destruction. 2012s The Blood Flowed Like Wine tells the supernatural tale of an evil so powerful that not even hell can hold back its wrath. All The Colours Of The Dark continues this tradition while breaking new musical terrain. Though the new record includes cinematic instrumentals and that the band is known for, it also sees Federale expanding their vision to narrative songs in the baritone-driven style of heroes Lee Hazlewood, Scott Walker and Nick Cave. Murder, revenge, regret, power and corruption are the lyrical themes of this collection.

In 2014, Federale contributed five songs to Ana Lily Amirpours acclaimed gothic vampire film noir, A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night, setting the mood of both the film and the soundtrack. Lilys new film, The Bad Batch, will feature the title track from the new album.
