"Thanks Manee. Although I speak fluent Spanish the funny thing is I don't like singing in Spanish. I don't know what it is but the phrasing just doesn't seem to work for my style. Spanish is quite a 'hard' language and maybe…"

"Hey John. Thanks for your very nice comments. I really appreciate it. I have never performed in the US believe it or not. I have lived and worked in Spain for most of my adult life. The jazz scene here has some amazing musicians but the work is…"

Profile Information

Where are you located?
Barcelona and Dublin
Tell us a little about your background...
I was born in PHILADELPHIA. My father, Paul Curry, was a professional musician of the first rank and I grew up surrounded by music. He was a jazz pianist-arranger-composer-conductor, who toured extensively with his own quartet and devised and arranged for internationally famous tap dancer Gregory Hines and played with most of the greats, including Sarah Vaughn and Ella Fitzgerald, both seminal influences on my ambitions to sing.

I have performed in many places and on many stages, recorded with many artists and on various labels. However, it is in recent years that I have found my own style and voice as a singer and composer, particularly in collaboration with the great jazz pianist from Barcelona, Jaume Vilaseca.

In 2008 I released my first solo album entitled Unconditional Love.

How sad, not Michael Jackson's death but his life. No talent is worth the suffering he endured as a child and as an adult. I mourn the life lost. 'Fame is the downside of being successful at what I do' Nick Kershaw'

A rare moment

Posted on February 16, 2009 at 1:05pm 0 Comments

This is a rare moment in history, as we live through change on a daily basis. I think we should embrace this change and not be frightened or paralyzed, the way we have been for so long without knowing it. This is our chance to be free and to take control of our own lives. The most important and powerful thing on the planet is the human brain and now is the time to use it, both individually and collectively. It's time!

The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!

Rudresh Mahanthappa On Piano Jazz

Mahanthappa brings an explosive blend of jazz and South Indian classical music to the studio.

Grady Tate On Piano Jazz

Grady Tate began his jazz career as a much-celebrated drummer, backing such icons as Wes Montgomery, Ella Fitzgerald, and Quincy Jones. Tate has since traded in his skins for a microphone at center stage, where he delivers smooth and soulful baritone vocals. With pianist John di Martino, Tate sings "Everybody Loves My Baby" and "Where Do You Start."

Woody Herman At 100: 'A Blues Player From His Heart'

He was a soulful reedman, an amazing talent scout for decades and a bandleader of one of the country's most popular acts. Born in 1913, Herman led "Thundering Herds" that were both big draws and well-respected by the likes of Igor Stravinsky. Here are five recordings which still sound fresh today.

Edmar Castañeda And Friends On JazzSet

Hear passionate improvisation across borders on Colombian harp, Argentinian bandoneón, Venezuelan cuatro and vibes from the U.S. In a set with Castañeda, his trio and special guests perform at the Americas Society in New York.

Miguel Zenón Quartet: Live At The Village Vanguard

Ever since he started becoming one of the best alto saxophone players in the world, Zenón has drawn from his upbringing in Puerto Rico. But, like many Puerto Ricans, Zenón lives in New York — where his quartet of 10 years has finally been invited to play the Vanguard. It presents new music in concert.
