Curtis Stigers shot to international fame with hits ?I WONDER WHY? and ?YOU?RE ALL THAT MATTERS TO ME?. In recent years Curtis has established himself at the forefront of a new generation of jazz singers. With one of the most distinctive voices in music, the singer/saxophonist/songwriter pushes the boundaries of conventional jazz performers and expands the jazz repertory creating modern jazz standards. Stigers?s latest release, I Think It?s Going to Rain Today, is a new collection of songs by some of the greatest and most influential songwriters of our time.

Putting his unique mark on tunes by Sting, Randy Newman, Mose Allison, Willie Nelson and Tom Waits, as well as two new Stigers' originals, Curtis continues to blaze a path as one of his generation?s finest and most original interpreters of modern songs. Curtis?s 2003 release for Concord Record?s ?YOU INSPIRE ME? was voted Sunday Times Jazz CD of the Year

Hot on the heels from his recent sell-out UK tour, platinum-selling singer/saxophonist Curtis Stigers will return to the UK to perform ? AN EVENING WITH CURTIS STIGERS?. Curtis will be joined by his sensational trio from the United States.
