Description
Curse in the Woods’ musical influences flow from the raw sounds of Delta blues and gypsy music, to the magnetic songs of Lhasa and Tom Waits, with a touch of the eerie melodies of horror film music.
Notes
Curse in the Woods was born as the result of a chance meeting one January night between Jeannie Taylor and Sam Harvey at a Montreal metro station, where Sam was playing the accordion. Sam had just come back from a three-year tour of Europe where he busked in the streets of more than eight countries. Jeannie, a visual artist and member of the burlesque troop Oops Johnny!, had begun to perform her own creation, a theatrical burlesque character, which melded the macabre with sensual beauty. Curse in the Woods is the product of the encounter of these two artists and the mixing of their similar yet unique visions.
A few short months after embarking on this project, Curse in the Woods had grown to include a collection of extremely talented musicians and a wide variety of instruments. Curse in the Woods had become a largescale multi-media project, combining music with diverse theatrical and audiovisial elements, drawing equally from traditional and contemporary backgrounds. Curse in the Woods’ musical influences flow from the raw sounds of Delta blues and gypsy music, to the magnetic songs of Lhasa and Tom Waits, with a touch of the eerie melodies of horror film music.
From the moment they played their first shows Curse in the Woods was affably welcomed by Montreal’s pop and folk scenes and continue to entertain audiences at some of the city’s most popular venues. The momentum has continued over the years, allowing the band to establish a solid foundation in their own right as a fresh addition to Montreal's dynamic music scene. In 2010, Curse in the Woods recorded their first demo in a friend’s tiny apartment studio. In 2012, the band’s first album will finally be released. 'The Deals they Made' was recorded and mastered at Montreal’s own legendary Studio Victor. After years of academic musical and artistic study, the members of Curse in the Woods deliver a performance of story telling, music and visual arts that captivates the audience in an atmosphere of wickedly mystic fun.
