Tom Curren

“I actually was consciously trying to emulate bands like Bruce Springsteen, and just trying to emulate what they do structurally.”

“I don't really collect guitars like some musicians do.”

“I began playing drums when I was seven and guitar when I was fourteen, but it wasn't until the early '90s that I took music seriously.”

“I did an instrumental jazz album. That was my first album.”

“There's really only three things you can write music about: girls, cars and surfing.”

“New Zealand is my favorite country to visit.”

“I was in Australia in about 1996 when I played some acoustic guitar for some guys at a studio down there. They were pretty happy with it, and mentioned doing an album, so about a year later I met some people who were interested in recording.”

“I would love to play the drums with 'The Who.'”
