The world of entertainment, with its colorful personalities and unpredictable ways, has in it the stuff that makes for greatness.  One Such great champion fiddler and master showman – is CURLY FOX, one of the great performing talents of the era.

Born in a small country town, at Graysville, Tennessee, he began his career at Radio Station WSB, Atlanta, Georgia in 1932.  For nearly four decades his artistry glowed in an unending succession of professional triumphs, whether it be any one of our colleges that they so often visit, or in auditoriums from the world famous Carnegie Hall, Constitution Hall, and The Grand Ol’ Opry, to the smaller arenas in the American Heartland.   Curly teamed up with many great talents in his career, performing with the best.  Such old time greats as Fibber McGee & Mollie, Lum and Abner, The Boswell Sisters, Rubinoff and his violin, and a real first for a “hillbilly fiddler”, Curly performed for royalty, King Paul and Queen Fredrika of Greece.
