    Disco Curtis is:
    Being in a band can mean anything these days. But for some, the underlying passion of the last 50 years still holds true: Music can bring people together. Disco Curtis thrives on this notion, but they also take it a couple of steps further. It’s their unshakable enthusiasm for both the music and their fans that compliments their memorable pop/rock-tinged rock style. Their debut EP, Play With Fire, Get Burned, is music for the masses, pure and simple.

    The Dallas, Texas-based foursome originally came as kids, where a young Howe and Novak first bonded over playing piano and drums, respectively. As the fast friends grew older, various band incarnations came and went, but upon syncing up with Garrett Perales, and later on Brendan Barone, the initial making of Disco Curtis began to take shape.

    Howe and Co. quickly took to MySpace for a unique marketing plan. Plugging a photo, and quickly following that with releasing a song at a time, interest about the band slowly took shape until the fearless foursome set out on the road for tours with the likes of Boys Like Girls and Forever the Sickest Kids. Disco Curtis credits their MySpace fanbase as being the key to making it all come together.

    Plucking from their influences (Say Anything, Dashboard Confessional, All-American Rejects, Blink-182) with the skilled craftsmanship of their musical upbringing, Disco Curtis’ genre-blending rock sound is undeniably fresh -- chock full of Howe’s savory and honest lyrics about love and self-introspection, which come alive on tracks like the propulsive “Incendiary Devices” and “Surprise Me.” Novak’s full-throttle delivery, and Perales’ barreling riffage on “Breaking Hearts” is tightly woven, but it’s the crush-worthy anthem “Ashley” that showcases Disco Curtis’ on the spot likeability.

    “The main thing about writing a song is that it can’t be forced,” says Howe. “I can’t make something up in a song or else it’s not real to me. If it’s not real to me, how can I make it real to someone else?”


    The Disco Curtis name is somewhat of an homage to a fellow disco legend and drummer named Curtis. The mysterious impresario, who also resides in the band’s native Dallas, used to perform with various disco artists throughout the 1970s, wearing a paper bag over his head. Decades later, this mystery man who loves that disco beat, has become a mentor and a friend to Disco Curtis.

    “We’ve known him for years,” Howe explains. “When it came down to naming our band, Disco Curtis came to our head because we spent a lot of time with him last summer. He’s been a big influence on us. “

    “No matter what kind of song it is, he always puts a disco beat on it,” Novak adds. “As a joke, we started calling him Disco Curtis.”

    The band’s overall mission is pretty basic: keeping communication open between them and their fans. “No matter what, we’re never going to change the way we treat our fans and the ways we invest time in them, just like the way they invest time in us,” Novak says. “Regardless of what changes, we always want to have true relationships with our fans. That is our golden rule.”

    Such a mantra was definitely put to the test during the band’s first-ever tour this past October, where they performed acoustic shows at select Hot Topic locations across the U.S. “Honestly, I can’t think of a better way of developing the band and helping us get started than Hot Topic,” Novak says. “It was a really cool experience for us.”

    Disco Curtis is wide-eyed for what’s in store for 2010. While plans to write and record a host of new material are already in the works, Disco Curtis’ debut video for “Ashley” is set for a January 6th release. They’ll also be spending the winter months prepping for their appearance on second half of the annual Vans Warped Tour, with dates slated for July 20th through August 15th. The Play With Fire, Get Burned EP is currently available for download via iTunes.
