Attention music fans:
I just got an e-mail from my college friend Matt Curreri, who has a new album out. You should order it. I saw him perform several times back at ND and I guarantee you’ll enjoy his work. (His label says he appeals to fans of “R.E.M., Belle & Sebastian, Elliott Smith, Velvet Underground, and the Beach Boys,” if that helps.) I’m curious to see how this album turns out, because on his website it sounds as if he’s changed direction from the “silly” stuff he did at school. That’s fine with me… I always liked the sincere stuff better anyway. Give him a listen.
