Bio
Curtis Nowosad has quickly become a first-call drummer in the city of Winnipeg. At twenty-two, he has already performed in big band and small group settings with some of New York’s finest jazz musicians, including Stefon Harris, Marcus Printup, Ted Nash, Steve Wilson, Miguel Zenón, and his teacher and mentor Steve Kirby. As a member of Kirby’s Monday Night Hang House Band, Curtis has the distinct opportunity of performing weekly with George Colligan and Jimmy Greene. In addition to having opened for such artists as Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Centre Orchestra, The Christian McBride Band, and The Bad Plus, Curtis has also performed at the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal, Vancouver’s The Cellar, and Edmonton’s Winspear Centre. Curtis plays periodically with the Winnipeg Jazz Orchestra, and can be heard on Marco Castillo’s "Brazilian Season", as well as Keith Price’s "Breakfast of Champions". A student in the University of Manitoba’s Bachelor of Jazz Studies program, Curtis is a pupil of the great Terreon Gully and has received several awards for his playing, including an Oliver Jones Scholarship. This year he was also a featured presenter at the KoSA Winnipeg DrumTalk Festival. Curtis is also active as a composer, arranger, private teacher, clinician, and journalist. He plays EPEK drums. .. .. .. ..
