Welcome
Now, come inside and take a look around at my beautiful collection of sweet music......okay, you can’t see it here (nor does it even actually exist given that I listen to nearly all of my music through Spotify, SoundCloud, YouTube and the like these days), but this is only the first post.
Well, it’s me again, P Curry. If you don’t know me in real life and/or couldn’t tell from my travel blog, there’s a number of areas and topics in which I am well-read, highly knowledgeable and quite passionate about. Music is one of them. So, naturally, I decided to start a music blog.
In addition to sharing tracks and videos, it is here where I’ll also offer a wealth of thoughts and opinions surrounding the history and culture of music. It will also likely be updated more often than my travel blog, just saying.
As always, I suggest you all stay tuned. Some great things are coming.
