Last week we officially released our sophomore album West of Here, and in conjunction with the album release, we’re digitally re-branding! We’ve got a new official “The Currys” logo (see webpage header and album cover) and a brand-spanking new website (you’re on it!) compliments of graphic/web design wunderkind Christa Albano. Plus, we’ll have the new album and a collection of new merchandise–including T-shirts and koozies–available at all our official CD release shows. This past weekend saw us in the Big Apple, and before the…Read More

Today, finally, marks the official release of our sophomore album West of Here! Many of you who contributed to our Kickstarter campaign or attended a pre-release show in Virginia have obtained an advance copy, but we’re excited to finally share the album with everyone else. It has been just under two years since we released our debut, Follow, in which time we have been dutifully writing, recording, and preparing to release these new songs. They mean a lot to us, and we hope you all enjoy…Read More

The second single from West of Here drops today! Galen’s “Firestarter” can be heard exclusively at Elmore Magazine and starting tomorrow will be available for streaming on Soundcloud. The good folks over at Elmore were kind enough to write up a brief band profile and review. Here’s a teaser: “When [The Currys] began, they stuck close to roots, with a strict focus on heavy harmonies and layered instrumentation of the mandolin and guitar. Now, with a growing fan base behind them, thanks in part to national tours that…Read More

Finally, it’s here… your first chance to listen to a song from the new album! Today, the first single from West of Here premieres on the pop culture website PopMatters. “If I Find It” was one of the last songs written for the record, and it was really brought to life in the studio, so much so that we dubbed it the first single and have begun work on a music video for the song (more on that to come). It’s available exclusively at…Read More

2016 has begun, and with it comes… Kickstarter rewards! Many of you out there were integral in helping us raise the capital to record our second album West of Here, and before we get ahead of ourselves we should say, once again: THANK YOU! Now, at last, we can prove our gratitude by beginning to fulfill your Kickstarter rewards. This week we started recording the many cover videos that were requested (everything from Nat King Cole to Counting Crows). We’ll also be spending time painting/drawing/collaging,…Read More

Welcome to the new year! We Currys are in the final week of our Florida winter tour, which has seen us all over the northern half of the state, shuttling back and forth between Gainesville, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, and home-sweet-home Port St. Joe. It has been a wonderful holiday season full of family, friends, fans, and even the occasional jingle horse. 😉 Next week we’ll be leaving FL for the cooler climes of central VA, where we will dive back into the work of…Read More

After spending four full days in the studio this past week, we’re now about halfway through tracking the new album. The songs are starting to come together as we near the end of rhythm tracking (drums, bass, acoustic guitars), and much of this next week will feature mandolin and electric guitar tracking, along with a bunch of harmony vocals. We’ve also got tentative plans to bring in a pedal steel player, a pianist/organist (who plays with Ryan Adams), and our good…Read More

We are now only two weeks away from entering the studio to start tracking our sophomore album. We’ve got fourteen days in the studio, distributed over four weeks. We’ll be working with at least three other musicians, maybe six. We’ll be working with the same studio team that helped us engineer and produce Follow almost exactly two years ago. We’ve got thirteen songs that are on the short-list to make the album, some older favorites, some brand-spanking new tunes. Over the past few…Read More
