Cursive to Perform at State Theatre

Cursive will be appearing at the State Theater on Monday, May 4th at 8:00.  The indie rock band from Omaha kicked off it’s tour in January to promote their latest release Mama, I’m Swollen, which they recently completed with producer Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, the Faint, Rilo Kiley).

Ever since Cursive burst onto the music scene with their 1997 debut album, the band has consistently churned out heady albums applauded by critics and fans alike.  Wrestling with life’s miseries and mysteries, Mama, I’m Swollen is an album brimming with the universal, questioning the human condition, social morality, and the “Peter Pan Syndrome” of grown men.  From the charging bass lines of album opener “In The Now” to the quiet first chords of confessional closer “What Have I Done?”, Mama, I’m Swollen is a natural progression that remains distinctively Cursive: a fluid amalgamation of the band’s past, present, and future – a band that both your punk kid sister and grad-student best friend can call their own.
   

Tickets are $19.
