about
Roy Curry was born in Warren Ohio. He has been playing guitar since the age of 11. Roy has built a national reputation as one of the finest flatpickers around. He has entered every major contest for the guitar and wins way more than he loses. He is one of only a handful of people to ever win the “National Flatpick Guitar Contest” In Winfield Kansas more than once. Unlike most contest winners, Roy is equally good at playing in a band. His tasteful support is a big part of The Lone Mountain Band's sound. Roy played with country stars the Forester Sisters from 1984 to 1987, playing on such respected stages as “The Grand Ole Opry” and the “Kennedy Center”. Roy also sings harmony parts with the Lone Mountain Band. His CD Flattop Specialist has received favorable reviews from several guitar magazines. "Put his CD on your "must-have" list and rub your good luck charm if you have to compete against him in a contest." -- www.flatpik.com "Bluegrass picker Roy Curry took this month’s Homegrown CD award with his feisty recording Flat Top Specialist. Having won the Winfield Flatpicking Championship twice (in 1980 and 1991), Curry is no stranger to the guitar." - Acoustic Guitar magazine, December 2000, No.96.
