Curtis Stigers is a singer, songwriter, saxophonist and guitarist whose 30-year career has defied easy categorisation. He first rose to prominence with his 1991 debut album, selling 1.5 million copies and producing hit singles including “I Wonder Why”. A year later, he recorded Nick Lowe’s “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace Love and Understanding” for The Bodyguard soundtrack, one of the best-selling albums of all time.
After further pop success in the 1990s, Stigers shifted direction in 2001, signing with Concord Jazz and releasing a series of acclaimed albums blending jazz with soul, blues, country and folk influences. He also co-wrote and performed the Emmy-nominated theme song “This Life” for Sons of Anarchy, while building a strong international touring career.
During the pandemic, Stigers launched his weekly livestream Songs From My Kitchen, performing intimate, stripped-back versions of songs from his catalogue alongside new material and covers. The project became one of his most creative periods, ultimately inspiring his 14th studio album, Songs From My Kitchen, Volume 1.
Born in Hollywood, raised in Idaho and shaped by years in New York, Stigers continues to perform worldwide, celebrated for his distinctive voice, musical versatility and instinctive approach to song.
