THE CURRYS
Brought together by family ties and a shared appreciation for folk, rock, and roots music, The Currys are an Americana trio featuring brothers Jimmy and Tommy and cousin Galen Curry. Like many family groups, their songs are anchored by the sort of elastic, entwined harmonies that only seem to exist among kin. On their second record, West of Here, their songwriting chops match those interlocking voices, with all three members contributing songs to an album that deals with the constant search for home.
We are excited to announce our Holiday show will showcase the release of this new album
Its an album that was born on the road. Following the release of the bands official debut, Follow, The Currys packed up their van and spent nearly two years on tour, playing everywhere from Los Angeles to New York to the Florida panhandle. Performing and traveling together on a daily basis tightened the trios melody-driven sound a sound captured by producers Chris Keup and Stewart Myers (Lifehouse, Jason Mraz) on West of Here s 13 tracks but it also left them feeling adrift. Tommy and Jimmy had grown up in the Sunshine State, Galen in upstate New York, and after college they all relocated to Charlottesville, Virginia, to record and release Follow. Now the trio found themselves hopping between the basement couches of friends and relatives as they drove around the country for months at a time, trying to figure out where they might like to plant their own roots.
Its been years since The Currys played their first songs together as teenage boys, swapping tunes during family reunions in the Florida panhandle. West of Here pays tribute to that history while simultaneously pushing the band forward, with one foot in the folksy sound of The Currys early writing and the other pointing toward something new. Like its title suggests, West of Here is the sound of a band on the move.
All of The Jewel Box Concerts are produced by Shakerag Culture Center Inc., and the City of Gainesville Dept of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Affairs.
