Timmy Curran releases sophomore album

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 10 March, 2010 : - - After three years of worldwide touring with artists such as Foo Fighters, Incubus, Switchfoot and Angels & Airwaves, Timmy Curran is set to release his sophomore album titled VerseS.  Recorded in the rolling hills of Ventura at Brotheryn studios, VerseS has been described by Curran as his most intimate and personal album yet. 

Known for his unique guitar and vocal stylings, Curran partnered with producer, Todd Hannigan, whose specialty is pairing an artist’s musical character to their own unique personality. 

The track titled "If I Only Had A Way"  was kept solo acoustic, similar to his first musical recordings. VerseS goes beyond Curran’s trademark guitar and offers listeners songs accompanied by piano (“Castle" and "Crazy Love"), electric guitar ("Believe", "Forever" and "Swim") and a unique song accompanied by the harp ("January").  “Variety was important to me on this album. 

My music is evolving and I want the listeners to come on that journey with me.  I was inspired by all different types of music and I hope it will show in this album.” said Curran. VerseS will be released under his own indie label, Citsuca Music. "I just wanted to put this album out under my own little label for now, keep it simple and be able to keep track of what's going on." VerseS is going to be a digital only release worldwide.

Currans debut album Word Of Mouth saw strong international success in countries like Japan and Australia, especially due to the fact that he decided to release the album worldwide for free. In doing so, Curran has had a great underground following and support at his shows. 

Word Of Mouth was re-released on Adeline Records in 2008 and achieved major success with the single "Blue Eyes", which made the top 20 on VH1 countdown. "Lonely" another track from Word Of Mouth was featured in the trailer for the hit movie "Marley & Me". VerseS will be available on itunes March 10th.
 
Timmy will be touring VerseS along with his new surf film "The Union Express". In addition to recording his latest album, Curran has also been filming up and down the coast of California for the last 2 years. "The Union Express" directed by Josh Landan, is a film about Curran travelling by train and surfing with friends from San Francisco to San Diego in their hometowns. 

The film stars along with Curran, Dane Reynolds, Rob Machado, Taylor Knox, Damien Hobgood, Nathaniel Curran and many many more. Be sure to visit timmycurran.com or myspace.com/timmycurran for tour dates and trailers of VerseS and "The Union Express" touring this April & May.
