Curtis Grimes

From the venue:

Curtis Grimes was a young man with brilliant prospects when he arrived at Centenary College of Louisiana on a scholarship for baseball as a pitcher. After a childhood filled with baseball, signing early and going to state his junior year, one would confidently assume how his current career resume would read. But here is what it actually says. Fourteen #1 hit singles on the Texas Radio Charts, a #1 hit song on the Power Source Country Christian Chart, a #1 album on iTunes, over 50 million streams on Spotify, and awards that have been piling up over the years including: “New Male Vocalist of the Year,” “Male Vocalist of the Year,” “Entertainer of the Year” and “Country Christian Song of the Year,” twice, at the Texas Country Music Awards. Add to that a hit single placed in a national Supercuts commercial campaign, a feature on The 700 Club, and a residency in the Top 5 on the Texas Music Pickers Spotify chart (beating out artists like Aaron Watson), and it‘s all rather amazing that at one time baseball was all that mattered; music was not even in the picture.
