While Currie and Darling had a mutual admiration society as 1970s icons, the two didn’t meet until 2017, when producer Dave Darling reached out to Currie to contribute vocals to Fanny “Walked the Earth”, a reunion album from the trailblazing Fanny, the first all-female band signed to a major label (Reprise) in 1969. Now fierce friends and cool collaborators, they’re singing together on a new album, “The Motivator”, a 12-song album featuring nine classic covers by bands including T. Rex, The Rolling Stones, Buffalo Springfield, Stevie Wonder, and John Lennon, plus three powerful new originals, including the tough rocker “Too Bruised” and the topical “This Is Our Time”.
