about

Picture this: two best friends, sitting in a bedroom, both angry and bitter at the world, when somehow, despite all of the rage, one manages to let loose a laugh in order to console the other. This is what listening to Amelia Curran's War Brides feels like. The Halifax musician isn't scared to let her raspy, no-nonsense vocals tell stories about lost love, false love and no love. Her misery is wrapped in whiskey-soaked country melodies and a folk-y hollowness as empty as the bottom of a pint glass. But even though songs like "The Furious Curve" and "Everything I've Got To Give" want to make you cry, you know that Curran's ever-present desire for hope is there to keep us from drowning. Throughout all of her pain, Curran still manages to make us smile and remind us that we're not alone in an unforgiving world.
