The Curio Cowboys have been performing western swing in New Mexico and the Southwest for over 10 years. Designed to reflect the territory bands that dotted the western landscape more than a half century ago, The Curio Cowboys cut a wide swath of songs that go beyond the standard repertoire associated with Bob Wills, the acknowledged King of Western Swing. In addition, they also play music made popular by Cliff Bruner, Tex Williams Milton Brown and more, reflecting the widespread influence of western swing in popular culture. The group prides itself in it's collection of vintage instruments, such as steel guitars, guitars, and mandolins, which help round out the authentic vibe of the band's sound. Mike Gross of KSEY-FM in Seymour, Texas calls The Curio Cowboy's new CD "Sunbursts Saga" a "fantastic album, packed with 17 very enjoyable musical cuts of this very talented Western Swing band." The Cowboys' CDs always include vivid, nostalgic artwork and informative liner notes, penned by group co-founder John Feldman. The Cowboys have played for the City of Albuquerque, the Western Music Association, as well as countless hotels, dance halls, and community centers between Albuquerque and Las Vegas.
