Curtis and Loretta at Two Way Street Coffee House

Curtis & Loretta’s music comes straight from the heart. The husband and wife duo’s extraordinary harmonies and proficiency on a parade of stringed instruments create an alluring frame for their poignant original songs, and traditional pieces from America and the British Isles. The current menagerie
includes mandocello, folkharp, guitars, clawhammer banjo, ukulele, and mandolin, plus a bit of kazoo, harmonica, and shakers.

Curtis’s down-home sense of humor and Loretta’s theater background engage the audience in an experience that runs the gamut of rolling with laughter to holding back tears, with plenty of side-trips in between. They deliver their own unique brand of folk singer/songwriter music.

They have released nine CDs, and shared billings with such luminaries as Pete Seeger, Arlo Guthrie, Holly Near, Vassar Clements, Claudia Schmidt, and many more!

Among their many accomplishments, they were awarded Best Acoustic Performers of the Twin Cities (Minneapolis-St. Paul) by City Pages in 2002!
