Portugal. The Man Goes K-Pop with Fiddles and Folk Vibes

In a surprising twist, Portugal. The Man's lead singer, John Gourley, has been bitten by the K-pop bug. His secret? A daughter who stans Twice.

That's right—while most rockers are jamming to their own tunes, Gourley is tuning into catchy K-pop anthems. He admitted he's fallen 'deep into K-pop,' and honestly, who can blame him?

This musical crossover isn't just a phase. Gourley and his band are adding fiddles and folk elements to 'Golden,' creating a mashup that’s as unique as it is infectious.

In a recent interview, he gushed, 'The energy of K-pop is unreal. It's fun, and I want to bring that into our music.' No doubt, this blend could shake up the music scene.
