Nick Curran (1978-2012) is an American blues singer and guitarist. He has been likened to Guitar Slim, T-Bone Walker, Little Richard, and is clearly influenced by Amos Milburn. Curran grew up in the Portland, Maine area, where his father was a professional musician. His father would give him The Fabulous Thunderbirds and Duke Robillard records and say, “If you want to be a good guitar player, learn all these solos, every note!” At 15 Curran was playing guitar with his father’s blues band, Mike Curran and the Tremors.
