Matthew Curry has built a multi-generational audience through a deep,
pure connection forged with fans that have encountered him via headline
appearances and cherished support opportunities from some of the most
successful touring and recording artists in the history of music. Simply, he is a
singer-songwriter, who’s also known for his incredible guitar playing abilities,
writing songs that draw from personal inspirations, incorporating elements of
blues, rock, southern rock, and old school country in to his repertoire. Alongside
a ton of headline dates across the U.S., and isolated appearances overseas,
Matthew Curry has had the honor of touring with the Doobie Brothers, Steve
Miller Band, Peter Frampton, Journey, Don Felder (of the Eagles), and others.
Steve Miller articulated his thoughts about the left handed guitar slinger to
Ultimate Classic Rock offering, "..,wonderful guitar player [and] great songwriter
in the Stevie Ray Vaughan area of virtuosity and originality." While Peter
Frampton shared to 96.5 The Fox, "... someone asked me in an interview today
if I thought there could be anymore guitar heroes. Well, hell yes of course and
Matthew is one who will prove that to be true.”
Curry was born and raised in Bloomington Illinois and began playing
guitar at the age of four with encouragement from his father. He began playing
live performances at the age of eight and by eleven, the young guitarist was
fronting his own band and beginning his songwriting career. His first album “If I
Don’t Got You” was released in 2012 followed by “Electric Religion” (2014),
“Shine On” (2016), and “Open Road” (2019). In 2015, Curry made his debut on
the big screen with his roll as the late Ronnie Van Zant of Lynyrd Skynyrd in “Joe
Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser”, acting alongside comedy legend, David Spade.
Throughout his adult life, Curry has toured and released music consistently
amazing audiences all over the world with his fiery guitar playing and soulful
vocals. Top 40 Charts says, “Curry has been creating a serious buzz the past
few years. This rising star from the Heartland of Normal, IL. has already seen
rock star-like standing ovations at key festivals both in the U.S. and abroad, and
the lines for his autograph at the merchandise booths are longer than most
headliners.” Patrick Simmons of the Doobie Brothers says, “The audience loved
his well crafted songs, soaring guitar solos, and soulful singing. We were part of
that audience. He is the real deal.”
