Curtis Stigers in Concert

Curtis Stigers burst onto the recording scene in 1991 with his eponymously-titled debut album, which sold 1.5 million copies and spawned several self-penned, pop/soul hit singles, including “You’re All That Matters To Me”, “Never Saw A Miracle” and the worldwide top-ten hit, “I Wonder Why.” The next year the singer/songwriter/saxophonist recorded Nick Lowe’s “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace Love and Understanding” for “The Bodyguard” soundtrack, which has sold over 45 million copies worldwide.Stigers recorded two more pop-oriented albums in the 1990s and made guest appearances on several albums, including two by his early musical mentor, the legendary jazz pianist Gene Harris.

In 2001 Stigers pivoted artistically and signed with Concord Jazz.

Over the next 18 years he recorded nine genre-busting albums, combining his jazz sensibilities with his love for emotional, well-written modern songs from a wide variety of sources including rock, blues, soul, country and folk.

During this period Stigers co-wrote and sang “This Life”, the Emmy Award-nominated theme song to the wildly popular TV show “Sons Of Anarchy”, and also made cameo appearances in the Seth MacFarlane movies “Ted” and “Ted 2”.

All the while, Stigers was cultivating a successful and enduring touring career, playing concerts around the world, performing songs from his jazz albums as well as newly reconstructed “jazz” versions of his hit songs from his early pop albums.
