Curtis Stigers
Acclaimed American Jazz Singer & Saxophonist
For the past thirty years, the singer, songwriter, saxophonist, and guitarist has been making records that confound those who try to categorize his music or put him in a box.
Curtis Stigers has had several top ten hits as a long-haired, blue-eyed soul singer and he has written and sung an Emmy nominated TV theme song. He’s recorded a track for one of the biggest-selling pop albums of all 1me and he’s released nine cri1cally acclaimed award-winning jazz albums.
His most instantly recognisable mainstream hits have included “I Wonder Why,” “Your All That Matters to Me” and “Never Saw a Miracle” back in the 1990’s.
Curtis has played for presidents and princes, and he has appeared in two Seth MacFarlane movies about a foul-mouthed cuddly bear called Ted.
He’s recorded thirteen studio albums and a live album singing Sinatra songs with a big band from Denmark. He’s toured with symphony orchestras, written songs with Carole King and duetted with Al Green, Shawn Colvin, and Tom Jones.
Who is this guy? Stigers' success as a songwriter has included co-writing with the likes of legends like Carole King, Barry Mann, and Beth Nielsen Chapman, and his songwri1ng talent also led to an Emmy nomination for co-writing and singing the theme song to the wildly successful TV series Sons of Anarchy.
It is his rich singing voice, however—singular, balletic, and at turns both mournful and playful— that has landed him on records with the likes of Al Green, Shawn Colvin and Jackson Browne, in studios with venerated producers like Larry Klein, Danny Kortchmar, and Glen Ballard, and on stages and concert bills with pop and rock legends, including Eric Clapton, Elton John, Bonnie Rait, Prince, Rod Stewart and The Allman Brothers Band, as well as jazz giants Nancy Wilson, Al Jarreau, Gerry Mulligan, Randy Brecker, Michael Brecker, Chuck Mangione, Toots Thielmans,Wynton Marsalis, Branford Marsalis, Kurt Elling, Diana Krall, John Scofield, Larry Goldings and many more.
Born in Hollywood, raised in Boise, Idaho and transplanted to Manhattan, he now resides between concert appearances, back in Idaho, where he’s proud to help raise hundreds of thousands of dollars each year for the Interfaith Sanctuary Homeless Shelter.
The latest Curts Sigers album, This Life (February 2022), is a self-produced look back at 30 years of songs, albums, and concerts, featuring newly crafted versions of some of the biggest and best songs from his long, successful career.
