The Curtis King Band is a funky, bluesy, good-time, traveling rock ‘n’ roll band with an East-meets-West sound. We've been keeping the party going in Asia since 1996, performing and touring in China (including Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau), India, Japan, Singapore, New Zealand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. Curtis and his cast of world-class musicians and entertainers have been featured on MTV, the BBC, China Central Television, XoneFM Radio (Vietnam), HTV (Vietnam). The band has performed at The 2008 Agent Orange Benefit Concert, LIVE EARTH 2007, Jakarta International Jazz Festival , Loreto Fest 2008 (Vietnam) and have played with international greats Deep Purple, local Vietnamese talents Tran Manh Tuan, Siu Black, Hong Nhung, Singapore's guitarist extraordinaire John Chee (at the legendary Crazy Elephant), Matthew "Cadillac" Cooper, and many other top performers from around the world. The band has recorded 2 studio albums and 2 live albums (1 of which hit the #1 spot at Tower Records and HMV Singapore), and has recently experimented with an East-meets-West blues style using traditional Asian instruments. (Check out the music/video page.) We also are involved in the local community, supporting the Vietnam Red Cross on the Agent Orange issue.
