Biography
Andrea Curry's music is a love letter for the broken hearted which sees right through your soul, a laugh and a nudge for the crafty intellect, a scream for the angry and frustrated and a giant melting pot where folk, pop, rock and jazz are stirred into an emotional craze! She married her music at a young age and that was it. For richer or for poorer, sickness and in health it is in her veins, her spirit and your hearts.
She's always a Cape Bretoner at heart, but is currently based out of Halifax. She’s smack dab in the middle of recording her second album with her new band (Andrea Curry & The Awful Truth) of merry musicians: Nick MacLean on the electric guitar, Janis Dawson on the Baritone Violin and, Daniel Baldwin formerly of Rock Ranger on the Bass and the Legendary Chuck Bucket on Drums. The album is a new direction for Curry. She's venturing deeply into the world of producing and arranging and working closely with catfish recording. Her first full-length album garnered her Three ECMA nominations (female artist, CBC Galaxy rising star, and pop recording) and two Nova Scotia Music Award Nominations (Songwriter, and female artist). She's had the good fortune to share stages with the likes of Hawkesly Workman, Oh Susanna and loads of other talented East Coast artists on ECMA stages, in Night Clubs, Pubs, Churches, street corners, and practice rooms.
