The Currys

Tommy Curry, Jimmy Curry, and Galen Curry formed a harmony-based trio of singers, songwriters, and musicians in 2013. Since 2013, they've released three highly-acclaimed albums and moved on from playing at oyster bars to being featured acts at larger venues and festivals. 

While they have consistently been known for their three-part harmonies and instrumentation, their newest album, This Side of the Glass, moves a bit away from their down home themes and folk/American sound to include a hint of pop and a homage to iconic music, such as Paul Simon's "Graceland."

The Currys, brothers Tommy and Jimmy, and cousin Galen, can each seamlessly shift from harmonies to lead vocals. Galen plays bass, Jimmy and Tommy both play guitar—Jimmy on an electric acoustic—and a mandolin may show up in Tommy's hands during a show. Their songs are enjoyable, yet not simple; new, yet familiar, and their delight in writing and performing is easily seen by the audience.

Like many performers of their generation, they have an active online presence, including a podcast, This Side of the Mic, which includes a bit of friendly competition such as their version of "Name That Tune." Those who follow The Currys on YouTube may see a video-of-shame made by the "loser."

It's clear that The Currys love music, including listening to it, learning from it, and creating it.
