After the dissolution of his Russian tribute band Kino Proby, Portland guitarist / singer Adam Kurtz relearned English and crafted his musical musings into "The Devil is Defeated," a concept album which melodifies the red-flagged befores, precipitous and shaky durings, and optimistic afters of a defining life era. His songs combine acoustic warmth with electric highs, playful and revealing lyrics with layered harmonies, and a sincerity in sound and theme that is rare in these binary times. The album provides more than a few sing alongs, head-bob alongs, and air-guitar inspiring riffs (air-guitar alongs). In concert, Adam performs with an air tight rhythm section, hermitically sealed to prevent the infectious songs from spreading, though so far the preventative measures have been unsuccessful. World Health authorities take note: a melody-borne virus is on the loose.

Once upon a time,
on the 29th of August,
4 dirtbags rocked,
'till SPACE was made of sawdust.

When the hour struck 9,
Right on Congress street,
The people drank until they cried
as they danced to the beat.

-A poem by Roy Davis

Hey, I was at the Slante last night listening to you at the open mic. Thank you so much for a copy of your new album, and even more thanks for gracing me with your wonderful music. I was having a rough day, and your songs were just what I needed to hear to encourage myself to move on, that life isn't so bad. Your performance was a natural high. I hope to see you live again!

Take care,
Elizabeth

i love how you put "Adam put out advertisement for lead guitarist" in your description of Z.E. Coffin. Like articles really don't matter any more. They really don't. They're useless, like awkward conversations over a coffin. Best kept to oneself. I think Aaron would agree.

Hey A-bomb! Those three tunes sound teriffic. For realz. I'm just not saying that so I have a reason to post my show's flyer on your page. Seriosly, the band sounds killer, well recorded. I'm stoked to hear the whole thing. NOW comes the plug: Come to The Empire a week from friday and hang...should be a wild one.

Sincerely,

Roy

Hello, my friend! Here's what I need: life update, and PHOTOS FROM TRIP. The cat has now turned into a terrible monster of unrestrained shitting and eating of clothes, I want to remember when she was tiny and sweet. And sites and so forth.
Also, did you hear they changed business visa rules? We're all screwed.
