Details: On Curtis Stigers's 2025 release, this multi platinum artist, embraces his inner singer-songwriter, honoring the songs he performed from his kitchen to his virtual audience during the pandemic... "Rock 'n' roll and jazz share so many of the same artistic bloodlines that it's remarkable the two don't fuse more often into the kind of inspired marriage of visceral clout and intellectual savvy conjured by the singer, songwriter and saxophonist Curtis Stigers." -New York Times "If voices, like wines, had noses, Curtis Stigers' would be dusky oak with hints of Willie Nelson, Harry Nilsson, Ray Charles and Matt Dennis. It's a voice that's at once young and old, tender and tough, warm and inviting as a caress, yet sturdy as a firm handshake." -Jazz Times "When Curtis Stigers came on stage on Wednesday night, it felt as if someone had upped the wattage in the bulbs." -Wall Street Journal "Stigers remains one of the most thoughtful and uncategorisable of artists. Armed with a characterful croon, a chiselled jaw and a saxophone, the American singer is winning wide acclaim... His stage manner is as droll and quick-witted as the very best stand-up comedian's. Stigers is now one of the most sophisticated acts on the circuit. Do not miss him." -The Times of London "Stigers croons, growls and scats in a fashion that manages to be both as authoritative as a veteran and as fresh as an ingenue." -MOJO
