Armed with a cello, computer, guitars, bass, and drums; Porter delivers organic beats that fall somewhere between
hip hop, downtempo, and indie/classic rock, all rooted in the soundscapes of the old West. His expansive music
captures historical and emotional moods as it navigates a variety of spaces and genres.
Always moved by music, he has been playing instruments since he was a young boy. He was number 21 on
textura.org's top 50 artists of 2007.
“Something Glue” pairs tracks from "Blessed by a Young Death", Porter's forthcoming first solo fulllength album,
with two new tracks composed specifically for this release. "Something Glue" is a perfect introduction to Glen Porter's dusty, cinematic instrumental style. Moody atmospherics,
percolating beats, and melancholy folk ambiance come together in carefullycrafted pieces dominated by both
unusual and traditional instrumentation. The impressionistic glow of Glen Porter's music links the old and new, and
speaks to both.
