Amelia Curran

Event information

Amelia Curran is a seeker…

Nearly a decade ago she left St. John's for Halifax, but still pines for Newfoundland every single day. With a number of East Coast Music Award nominations and an extensive discography, including: War Brides (2006), Lullaby for Barflies (2002), Trip Down Little Road (2001), and Barricade (2000), Curran knew it was finally time to make a record at home.

Over the past two years she recorded with Don Ellis in various caverns in St. John's, the city of legends, from the abandoned CBC building on Duckworth Street to an old farm house on the fringes of town. For Curran St. John's captures the essence of her inner huntress.

A songwriter by trade, but a writer at heart, Curran believes language is everything. She describes the craft of song-writing as an act of "expressing the inexpressible, a means of describing the indescribable."

“Simply enchanting throughout; Amelia Curran provides an evening of unmissable entertainment filled with quirky anecdotes, flawless vocals and unforgettable tunes. A definite must see.” – Emily Saxton, Soundsense Online

“One of this country’s finest singer-songwriters.” Montreal Gazette
