“Jim Curry was over there sounding like John Denver… I closed my eyes and went back to the times when I worked with John.” Pete Huttlinger, guitar player for John Denver. Come join in the fun and take in the joy and hope of a full inspired evening of the music of America’s most beloved singer songwriter. National touring performer Jim Curry will have you clapping your hands and singing along to hit after hit.
From the very first song you will know why Jim was cast to be the voice of John Denver in the CBS movie “Take me home: the John Denver Story”. Curry was chosen as a key performer in the induction of John Denver into the Colorado Music Hall of fame show, and hosting the official John Denver Estate show that toured the United States and Australia, because of his pure clear voice that really delivers the music of John Denver.
“His voice was clear, sweet and oftentimes brought the audience to tears with its sincerity. What more can you ask for from an artist. Especially one singing the great hits of America’s Troubadour. If you ever get the chance to “hang around” with Jim Curry as he plays the music of the great John Denver, I highly recommend it.” –kevin@utahconcertreview.com
