After three years on the road, Curtiss O’Rorke Stedman came back to the city he left.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
Before touring the world as Cousin <\/a>Curtiss<\/a>, O’Rorke Stedman lived in Juneau and worked as an English teacher at Thunder Mountain High School. He was back in town this week for performances at The Rookery Cafe and Rendezvous and was pleased to be in the capital city.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t “This is home,” O’Rorke Stedman said in an interview with the Capital City Weekly. “Once it’s in your bones, this place is in your bones.”<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t For the past three years, the guitar and harmonica player has taken his blend of full-throated, roots-influenced music on the road traveling around the country and world.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t “It’s been full-on, about 160 shows a year,” O’Rorke Stedman said. “It’s fun, exhausting at times.”<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
