The band has performed at a variety of corporate, private, and public events and is available as a small trio (guitar/vocals, bass, cajon) for a mellow vibe all the way up to a full band (with drums, keys and lead instruments) for an upbeat performance.

Oakland based musician Curt Yagi has been on a tear through the Bay Area music scene. The Best of the Bay Singer Songwriter (SF Bay Guardian) and RAW San Francisco Musician of the Year and his band have toured throughout Hawaii, California and Nevada where they have appeard on many media outlets.  Curt Yagi & The People Standing Behind Me are always-engaging to the crowd and bring an original blend of upbeat acoustic rock with hints of reggae and ska for an island-inspired sound.

"People keep comparing him to other artists, but I think he just sounds like Curt Yagi, and that is plenty good enough. This is one excellent singer and songwriter." - Ben Fong-Torres, former Senior Editor, Rolling Stone

"A talented songwriter who sings -- like Kenny Loggins." - San Francisco Chronicle
