Port O'Brien
Port O'Brien was an American musical group combining elements of acoustic, folk and indie rock.They were named after a bay in Alaska featuring a now-abandoned cannery on Kodiak Island where founder member Van Pierszalowski's parents met.
They started out as a folk music duo of Cambria Goodwin and Van Pierszalowski while Cambria was living in Cambria, California and Van was living in Oakland.
After Cambria moved closer to Oakland they added a rhythm section composed of Caleb Nichols and Joshua Barnhart.The band has toured nationally with artists such as Nada Surf, Bright Eyes and The Cave Singers and toured Europe with Modest Mouse, as well as receiving favourable reviews from Pitchfork Media, Allmusic, and The Times.

Joshua Barnhart was replaced by Two Gallants drummer Tyson Vogel before the completion of the last studio-recorded album "Threadbare.""I Woke Up Today" from the album All We Could Do Was Sing was recently used as the backing music for several Dulux Paints television advertisement in Australia.
The band toured Australia in February 2009 as part of the St Jerome's Laneway Festival.Port O'Brien's new album, Threadbare, was released on 6 October 2009.
