Grimes is a 27 year old singer/songwriter from Gilmer, TX who is pursuing dream in the scene. Following a break up with his then fiancé in 2005, he started playing guitar and developed an interest in songwriting. He went to a pawn shop and purchased a used guitar and sat down in front of his computer and taught himself how to play.

Curtis “headed down 35” with intentions to finish his degree at Texas State in , Texas.  While there he fell of the Texas Country Music scene and was able to follow the Texas Country artists he looked up to at the time.  After playing for friends and relatives at gatherings and parties he was hooked by the entertainment bug. In the summer of 2007 he made a decision to roll the dice and see what would come. He started with just himself in a couple of small venues for Fraternity events and local bars, then added a band and started playing established venues across the state.

 

Things definitely picked up for Curtis after winning a local contest to open up for . He was recently a contestant on the hit NBC tv show "The Voice" in season one. This gave him an opportunity to broaden his fan base throughout the US, and was even aired around the world.
