Interview with Portland's Iconic Collective FEDERALE with COLLIN HEGNA

Portland's Iconic Collective FEDERALE released their sixth studio album, "Reverb & Seduction" on Jealous Butcher Records and also marking the band's 20th Anniversary. In the 20 years of their existence, Federale has carved out a unique niche within the indie music landscape, blending their signature spaghetti-Western instrumental sound with increasing doses of moody vocal arrangements in the spirit of Lee Hazlewood and Leonard Cohen. Through it all, I spoke with songwriter and lead singer COLLIN HEGNA – who also spent the last 20 years as a dues-paying member of The Brian Jonestown Massacre – maintains a strictly retro vibe. Federale's records have always sounded period-correct for an alternate-universe 1971, where rock and roll never caught on. Earlier, the band released the lead track, "Heaven Forgive Me" and "No Stranger" a song that pays homage to the legendary Lee Hazlewood. Recorded at Hegna's Revolver Studios in Portland, this album was engineered by Collin Hegna, Matt Thomson and Andrew Joslyn, who boasts five 5 Grammy Award winning albums. The album was mixed by Hegna with Jeff Stuart Saltzman (The Black Keys, The High Violets) and Matt T.To watch the interview on You Tube :  https://www.youtube.com/@DJNocturnahttps://federalepdx.comhttps://linktr.ee/FederalePDX
