   About JC
_________________________________________________________________

Hi i'm JC
I love music, wide open spaces, and some people
In 2008 I finished writing, recording & producing the album RESONANCE
You can even buy it here should you desire... go on, you know you want to


In addition to the above, I also did/do the recording/production for
THE LEVEE BREAKERS - Trying to reproduce legendary Led Zeppelin recordings with a fraction of the gear [ Insane ! ]
and have over the years produced music for BBC TV,
BBC Radio 1, STV, Grampian TV.

More recently I recorded the 1st single for dry Isalnd Buffalo Jump [see below]

And For the past 5 months or so i've incredibly busy recording/producing an album of interesting songs for an unknown singer songwriter - album to be released later this year

For years I taught guitar/music to so many of the bright young lights out there in many of bands of right now.... including mad RTK9000 visionary Rick Keith....Mr Gavin McGinty....and Luva Anna's talented hairball, Robbie Ward

Hope enjoy the page - johncurranguitarist@myspace.com

Dry Island Buffalo Jump - The Credit Crunch Song [HD] from James Shield on Vimeo.



Academics from the University of St Andrews have written a song about the credit crunch in aid of students in need.
The single was recorded & produced by John Curran... and you can download it here!

DRY ISLAND BUFFALO JUMP, the folk-rock band consisting entirely of academics from the Arts faculty, will donate all proceeds from the sales to a newly-established fund for St Andrews students. Money raised for the Dry Island Buffalo Jump Fund will go towards prizes, bursaries or scholarships to support financially disadvantaged students at the University.

For further information, or to preview and download the song (minimum suggested donation £1), visit:
