Details:
Pat Curley started playing piano at the ripe old age of 6. He played in his first organized garage band In the Louisville Kentucky area at 13. He did his first recording session at 15 in Nashville. This led to the opportunity to meet and perform with Artists such as Roy Orbison, Bobby Goldsboro, Skeeter Davis. The Tokens (Lion sleeps tonight fame), Dee Dee Sharp, Roger Miller and others. In more recent years Pat has turned to jazz as his genre and has recorded with well known artists such as Carmine D''Amico, Lee Hopkins and Tony Messina and others.
