Curley Taylor’s bluesy, soulful vocals and the band’s hard-driving Zydeco beat blend to create high-energy dance music for all audiences. Curley’s music is true to its roots in Zydeco and Blues, but contemporary enough to appeal to a broad range of music lovers. Curley Taylor & Zydeco Trouble tour extensively throughout the US, playing festivals and clubs from New York to San Diego and from Florida to Seattle. Often playing to audiences who have never heard Zydeco music before, they make fans wherever they go. Tucson Folk Festival will recognize Curley as one of the festival’s 2022 most beloved headliners.
Opening the show is local favorite, Connie Brannock and Little House of Funk. Connie Brannock is a Tucson-based R&B singer, songwriter, percussionist, and poet. She is known for her exhilarating live shows and ability to engage crowds. Her music is inspired by the songs she heard growing up, including Aretha Franklin, Donavon, Henri Mancini Orchestra, and Chet Atkins. Connie took the Tucson music scene by storm after she retired from the Army National Guard as Command Sergeant Major, and in 2009 she re-upped as a natural bandleader and patented R&B artist with enticing authenticity.
