About Curt Yagi
San Francisco based singer songwriter Curt Yagi has been on a tear
through the Bay Area music scene. The 2008 Best of the Bay Singer Songwriter (SF Bay Guardian) and RAW San Francisco Musician of the Year
recently had his song "Sweep Me" included on the very popular KFOG Local
Scene 8 CD in the Bay Area. On his latest full-length studio album,
“Close My Eyes", Yagi delivers captivating lyrics and hummable and
memorable melodies, augmented by a buoyant three-piece horn section and
edgy and layered guitars built on the foundation of a rock solid,
driving rhythm section. His songs are delivered in an inimitable and
endearingly charismatic persona the SFBG describes as “the swagger of
Lenny Kravitz and the lyrical prowess of Jack Johnson,” and The San
Francisco Chronicle called Yagi “a talented songwriter who sings -- like
Kenny Loggins.”
