The Madeira • Carpe Noctem

 



The Madeira plays surf music born of screaming wind over the sand dunes of the Sahara Desert, deafening echoes of waves pounding the Gibraltar Rock, joyous late-night gypsy dances in the small towns of Andalucia, and exotic cacophony of the Marrakesh town square. It is the surf music of the millennia-old Mediterranean mysteries.
Band Biography

The Madeira began in 2004 in Indianapolis, IN. The band features Ivan Pongracic on lead guitar, the founder of the 1990s surf music icons the Space Cossacks; Patrick O'Connor on rhythm guitar, the founder of the Indy space-surf mavens Destination: Earth!; Dane Carter on drums; and Todd Fortier on bass. We have released seven CDs: “Sandstorm” (2005), “Ruins” EP (2006), “Carpe Noctem” (2008), “Tribal Fires” (2012), "Sonic Cataclysm - Live" (2014), "Ancient Winds (2015) and "Center of the Surf - Live" (2018), all on Double Crown Records from Bellingham, WA. We've played all around the US, including four California tours as well as shows on the East Coast and in the South, though we primarily play in the Indiana/Illinois/Ohio/Michigan/Wisconsin area. We also headlined the third and final night of the 2009 Surfer Joe Festival in Livorno, Italy, followed by a 10-day Italian tour.

The Indianapolis weekly paper NUVO included "Carpe Noctem" in their April 2014 article "100 Best Hoosier Albums Ever," among albums by music legends Wes Montgomery, the Jackson Five and John Mellencamp. The band was also featured in a full-page article in the March 2014 issue of the Guitar Player magazine in the column titled "Now Hear This - Snappy Profiles of Players You Should Know." The May 2019 issue of the Vintage Guitar magazine featured the band in an article on the current surf music revival, referring to us as the "leading lights of the revival". UK's Pipeline magazine, the leading surf/instrumental-rock fanzine in the world, selected “Carpe Noctem” Album of the Year in 2008, "Sonic Cataclysm" Album of the Year in 2014, "Ancient Winds" Album of the Year in 2015, and “Sandstorm” and “Tribal Fires” as runners-up for the Album of the Year in 2006 and 2012, respectively.

La Madeira toca música de surf nacida de los gritos del viento sobre las dunas del desierto del Sahara, ecos ensordecedores de las olas golpeando el Peñón de Gibraltar, alegres bailes gitanos nocturnos en los pequeños pueblos de Andalucía, y la exótica cacofonía de la plaza del pueblo de Marrakech. Es la música de surf de los milenarios misterios mediterráneos.
