I’m bulemic: I know what you’re thinking. You’re wondering, Where is music headed in this whilwind of a postmodern age? I’ll tell you: Courrier is the future of music. No, they’re not the next Vampire Weekend imiation sensation. Yes, they are my current favorite music. Therefore, they’re the right music.
Courrier is a group of four men who has been faithful with little (they’ve even played at a pirate bar–ask them about it). They’ve played all around Texas, paying their dues. They have grown into one of the most versatile bands I’ve ever heard of: they can go into any environment and fill it with their huge sound. But they don’t have to blow your nose out your brains with their spacious stadium rock featured on upcoming EP “Like the Cold of Snow in the Time of Winter.” They are masters of adaptation; less like chameleons, more like James Bond: with style that kills and grace that inspires.
Their EP release show is not a take-it-or-leave-it social option on a Thursday night; it is a MUST ATTEND for all who want to hear where music is headed into the second decade of the new millenium. Courrier is the sound of the twenty-teens. This studio EP is just a foretaste of what’s to come.
