Biography

Kosmik Leprechaun is the main pet-project of American musician, artist and engineer Josh McCurdy since 1995. He's composed everything from experimental noise to primitive rock & roll. Most of his albums vary in style from one another, as he usually doesn't like to do the same thing more a few times before moving on to something different. He's played with many groups and collaborators over the years and has released lots of music, mainly through his label Completely Gone Recordings, as well as other labels.
