Award-Winning Band at Burlingame Farmer's Market

Burlingame Downtown Presents...
Dancin' Off the Avenue featuring the live sounds of
Curt Yagi & The People Standing Behind Me
at the Farmer's Market on Park Rd at Burlingame Ave

Thursday, Oct 17th from 5-8pm

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.”  Visit www.curtyagi.com.
