Thanks to everyone who came out for the Curtis Harvey/Glorytellers shows! Here’s a nice little blurb in TimeOut Chicago about our show at the Hideout, which turned out to be a blast despite a windchill factor of ten-gazillion degrees below zero. We also had great shows (and thankfully, good turnouts) at the Cake Shop in NYC, Kung Fu Necktie (yeah, I know) in Philly, and even in Buffalo and Rochester. The rest of the shows were still fun, despite some predictably low turnouts. (Stormy Tuesday night in Cleveland, etc.). It was great to catch up with old friends in NY, Chicago and DC, but the best part of the tour was watching Curtis perform night after night. It’s rare to see someone so genuinely honest on stage, and his vivid, autobiographical songs became an inspiration for the tour. The shows inevitably became a family affair; everyone was running on and off the stage sitting in on each others’ songs. We’re sad it’s over, and Curtis and crew will be sorely missed. Fortunately Europe dates are coming up in Feb, so check back soon for more info on that.
