THE SONGWRITERS

The Currys
http://www.reverbnation.com/thecurrys
The Currys are a home-grown acoustic folk trio born and bred in the Florida panhandle. Incorporating elements of country, bluegrass, blues, and rock, the Currys' music showcases thoughtful songwriting, unassuming instrumentation, and mellifluous vocal harmonies.  The band was formed when brothers Jimmy and Tommy Curry met one another over breakfast in June 2006 and agreed that they really ought to take advantage of the fact that they shared both a last name and a living room.  They started playing locally over the summers during high school and college. In the summer of 2007, talented cousin Galen Curry (who may or may not be a blood relative) was asked to fill in for the band's non-existent lead kazoo player, and the rest is history.  The Currys join From The Heart Music Hour at The Moon show and the Ireland 2012 Tour.
