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.

Alaska-born Folk/Americana songstress now based out of Asheville, NC, Hope Griffin has a passion for musical story-telling. She is well known in musical circles for her angelic vocals, free spirited stage presence, and deep, poignant subject matter. She is often accompanied by her talented cellist Jamie Leigh. Together, their combined fusion of her silky vocals and Jamie Leigh's deep, rich cello lines has made for a listening experience quite unlike any other. As best described by Steve Wildsmith of the Daily Times: “In her capable hands, [the guitar] becomes an expression of longing, love, sorrow, joy and heartache, and when her duo partner, Jamie Leigh, adds in cello parts…the results are transcendent ones.”
cheer! is a combo presenting ramshackle ditties exploring urban depravity, heart break, fashion diets, and Brooklyn wrapped up in melodies that may have you whistling for days. This is a special performance featuring the wildly intonated Eric Bandurski on cello.
