Devon Sproule (born 23 April 1982, in Kingston, Ontario) is a musician based for many years in Charlottesville, Virginia. She married musician and singer-songwriter Paul Curreri in 2005. She shared the prestigious ASCAP Foundation Sammy Cahn Award for 2009 with Oren Lavie.〔"(Two ASCAP Lyricists Named Recipients of the 2009 ASCAP Foundation Sammy Cahn Award )" reported by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP), October 30, 2009〕 She and her husband moved to Berlin, Germany, in September 2011.〔"(Berlin bound: Sproule and Curreri head for Europe )" by Justin Cober-Lake, August 22, 2011 in The Hook: MUSIC FEATURES.〕 In the spring of 2012 they moved to Austin, Texas. ==History== Born to hippie parents on a commune named Dandelion in Kingston, Ontario, Sproule claims citizenship of both Canada and the United States. She spent her childhood on the , 100-member Twin Oaks Community〔("An Interview with Devon Sproule" ) by Bret Holmes Lucid Arts and Culture.〕 founded in 1967 as an intentional community and ecovillage in Louisa County, Virginia. Asked about how the experience has affected her musical career, she said: After moving between private, public and home schooling, she eventually left high school, recorded her first record, and began touring nationally—all before the age of eighteen.〔(Official Website biography )〕 She is married to musician Paul Curreri and lived with him in Charlottesville, Virginia. They often performed together locally, and also on tours across the United States and United Kingdom. They were both regular favorites at the now-defunct Gravity Lounge, a major platform for new talent in their hometown. In September 2011 Sproule and Curreri moved to Berlin, Germany, citing professional and economic reasons. "It felt like a good career move, to not just grow careers, but to make money, which is hard when you're going back and forth," says Sproule. "It's really fun to play over there where you can play the folk shows, but you can also play a little theater of 20-year-olds who are sitting on the floor and they're blogging about it the next day."〔"(Berlin bound: Sproule and Curreri head for Europe )" by Justin Cober-Lake, August 22, 2011 in The Hook: MUSIC FEATURES.〕 Sproule performed at the 2011 Bergenfest in Norway.〔(Bergenfest ) list of artists.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Devon Sproule」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
