Since 2006 Maine based Alt Folk duo Arborea (wife and husband Shanti and Buck Curran) has released 3 cds, performed shows and festivals in the U.S., U.K (Green Man Fest), and Europe…including a session for the BBC World on 3 program in London in 2009.

Arborea is currently supporting their latest cd ‘House of Sticks’ released on Borne! Recordings. Buck Curran has also curated and produced a compilation cd titled ‘Leaves of Life’ that was released during the summer of 2009.
