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. The Madeira have released four CDs: “Sandstorm” (2005), “Ruins” EP (2006), “Carpe Noctem” (2008) and “Tribal Fires” (2012). They've played all around the US, including three California tours as well as shows on the East Coast and in the South, though they primarily play in the Indiana/Illinois/Ohio/Michigan area. They headlined the third night of the 2009 Surfer Joe Festival in Livorno, Italy, followed by a 10-day Italian tour. UK's Pipeline magazine, the leading surf/instrumental-rock fanzine in the world, selected “Carpe Noctem” Album of the Year in 2008 and “Sandstorm” and “Tribal Fires” as runners-up for the Album of the Year in 2006 and 2012 respectively.
