the lee family Curse was born in college basements around 1994 in St. Paul. Called ourselves the Bottomfeeders for a little while, till we learned that was a bar band in St. Louis. The new name was a nod to the supermanly royal family of Asian film, also described the way we all felt sometimes. We trucked our big amplifiers to the industrial parts of town where rehearsal spaces tend to be, back and forth to the Turf Club and 400 Bar.

Then things got complicated. Josh and I wanted to reign in the songwriting. Corwin moved out to Providence, joined up with american rockers Barn Burning, became a furniture builder. Mike Storey eventually landed in NYC, started the power garage rock Izzys, built a giant plate reverb from scratch. Brian Tester started Triangle, took that out to Oakland. Adam put together a recording studio, produced live albums for Triangle and Lifestyle of Wigs, and studio albums for Spikedriver and the Izzys, and alot of his own songs, alone and with Josh or Kieran. Adam went to medical school in Brookyn NY, kept making music. Josh taught high school art in Edina, met a lot of good kids, this summer entered architecture school.

2005, Adam came back from Brooklyn to Minneapolis to marry Erin Rein and start neurology residency. Had a backlog of songs from the long years in medschool. Met up with Josh over the summer, rehearsed every day.
