Read moreJack WD
I am “Jack WD” as my stage name, but often at times I am also called “TheWrestlingDrummer.” My reason for my name to be “Jack WD” is because Jack is my real life first name and WD means “Wrestling Drummer”, which are the two things that I was known for doing during my high school days. Saying the words “wrestling” or “drummer” to any Lakewood kid, I’m most likely the first name that would come to mind…

iamCURBIE is a singer songwriter/loop artist hailing from the Jersey Shore. After 5 long years of writing and perfecting his songs, Better Late Than Forever was born and will be released on 3-3-18. A 6-date Mid-Atlantic Tour will follow shortly after in support of this record.
Although you might catch yourself singing and humming along to Curbie's memorable melodies long after they have reached their end, the lyrics behind them are far from fun and games. His unique ability to take a serious, real life situation and flip, flop, mix, mold, and weave happiness into a song will leave you asking for more. While heavily rooted in classic rock, alternative, and reggae; the pop sensibilities really shine through.
"I started playing music as a hobby just for myself," says Curbie. "I didn't think I could be more addicted to that feeling. Once I started realizing the impact it had on OTHER people it was game, set, match. This will be something I continue to do throughout my life. It is my life. It is a part of me. Knowing that I can bring smiles, tears, happiness, and evoke genuine feelings through music that I wrote has changed me. Being able to express feelings, I have had a hard time conveying otherwise, has made my personal relationships stronger and I owe that all to music."
Curbie's latest album, Better Late Than Forever, was recorded and mixed at Bob Bowling Audio (Atco, NJ) and mastered at The Gradwell House (Haddon Heights, NJ).
