Curtiss A

Curtiss A

Band,
Singer / Musician of Rock
A.k.a. Curtiss Almsted Buzz Barker Mr. Midnite

Prominent Minneapolis rocker/shouter from the mid-Seventies to present. Guitarist and singer/songwriter, AKA "The Dean of Scream." Occasionally lists himself on the performance credits of related projects under the alias Buzz Barker. When performing live the bill usually reflects "Curtiss A and (a band)...", as in "Curtiss A and The Jerks Of Fate," but none of his Twin/Tone LPs reflect a backing band by name and all are attributed to the all-encompassing artist name "Curtiss A."
