Jim Curry was selected to sing as the voice of John Denver in the CBS television movie Take Me Home: The John Denver Story, and he has since become the most experienced and sought-after performer of Denver’s music in the world. His concert recreates the warmth and soaring clarity of America’s Troubadour, available with a full band or with full symphony orchestra using Denver’s own restored arrangements.
When CBS produced the television movie Take Me Home: The John Denver Story, Jim Curry was selected to provide the singing voice of John Denver. That credential is unmatched in the field, and audiences understand why from the very first song: the tone, phrasing, and easy sincerity are uncannily close to the original.
Curry regularly performs with members of John Denver’s original band and has worked closely with them in the studio. That connection lends the show a level of authenticity that no ordinary tribute can claim, and it has earned him the respect of the people who shared a stage with Denver himself.
In an arrangement with Grammy-winning composer and conductor Lee Holdridge, who arranged for John Denver during his career, Curry restored Denver’s original symphony scores. The result is a true symphony pops presentation in which the orchestra becomes as much a performer as the singer, ideal for presenters with orchestral venues.
Curry is the first and only full-length John Denver tribute to headline in Las Vegas, and he has performed at landmark venues including Red Rocks Amphitheater, The Palladium in Carmel, and major amphitheaters and symphony halls nationwide and abroad. He was also a featured performer at John Denver’s induction into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame.
The strongest endorsements come from the people closest to the music.
“A couple of times I closed my eyes and went back 15 years.” — Pete Huttlinger, guitarist for John Denver
“oftentimes brought the audience to tears with its sincerity” — A performing arts center presenter
Presenters routinely rank Curry alongside the marquee headliners they book, and his heartfelt delivery, paired with multimedia images of nature and wildlife, sends audiences home with their senses filled.
The show scales to the venue and the occasion:
John Denver was one of the most beloved entertainers of his generation, an artist whose multi-platinum hits crossed every age group and reached audiences around the world. His sudden death in 1997 left a lasting void, and decades later the demand for his music remains as strong as ever. Songs like Country Roads and Annie’s Song are woven into the American songbook.
Jim Curry began his musical path on a full Rotary International scholarship to study music and voice, and his connection to Denver’s legacy was sealed when CBS chose him to be the voice of John Denver on screen. Since 2002, Curry and his band have brought Denver’s music to thousands of audiences, and his behind-the-scenes work, including restoring Denver’s original symphony arrangements and recording unreleased Denver songs, has made him a steward of the catalog as much as a performer of it.
The result is a concert that goes beyond imitation. Curry shares the stories behind the songs and honors Denver’s passion for the outdoors and the planet, delivering an evening that is heartfelt, uplifting, and built to tour. For a presenter, it is the rare tribute that satisfies devoted
