| Description: |
The New Yorker calls this renowned guitarist, songster & spirited live performer "exquisite... He brings a renewed eloquence to the medium." Originally from Charlottesville, VA, Curreri and his uber-talented wife (songwriter Devon Sproule) have now returned to the states after living abroad in Berlin, hanging their hats in Austin, TX. This will mark Curreri’s first visit to the North East in quite some time. He’ll also be celebrating the stateside release of his new album (his eighth), The Big Shitty. If that title puts you off, fear not, as you’ll find Curreri to be quite a charming fellow, and a rather hysterical performer. (He also played the role of Orpheus in Anais Mitchell’s Hadestown opera.) Add a rare 5-STAR review in MOJO, that guitar legend Kelly Joe Phelps produced one of his records, and Time Out London’s referring to Curreri as: “Unruly, poetic, and seductively badass,” and you end up with an appearance not to be missed.
