We welcome you to our Curious website!
Curious Blend is a mixed gender group (2 guys and 2 gals) that
refuses to be limited to one musical orientation. If we like it,
we sing it! A Curious Blend concert is like a meal of tapas –
tasty bites of different musical flavors.
Our repertoire includes music from the 12th to 21st centuries
sung in seven languages. We are known for our tight harmonies,
varied musical stylings, and spot-on humor. From Bobby McFerrin
to medieval Icelandic chant, from Pierre Passereau to Gene
Puerling, from an Irish lament to a rollicking pop parody – it’s
all part of an evening with Curious Blend.
Curious Blend harmonizes -- can you hear us now?
We've posted a couple of music clips to the right (that last one
is in Irish!). Let us know what you think!

Most interesting name of the year.
The name Curious Blend sounds
almost like that famous monkey Curious George, and
everybody likes cute monkeys. Zucchinis were high on our
list, too, but they weren't cute enough to make the
final cut.

I
can haz coffee? Curious Blend loves to sing at fine
coffee houses everywhere. Some of you have heard us harmonizing
at the Barefoot
Coffee Roasters, in Santa Clara, CA. The place was packed,
the tunes were jazzy, and the coffee was delicious! Don't miss
our next appearance, maybe in your neighborhood!
Your
ears and your taste buds will say "yum!" Curious
Blend will also be singing some scrumptious vocal jazz at various
locations in the Bay Area. Stop by again soon for
more info!
Curious Blend brings together a cappella voices into one
delicious blendified sound that makes your ears say "yum!". We
like monkeys (and coffee)!

Featured Song
Scotch and Soda is our previous featured song. Buy us a round of
scotch, and we'll sing it for you. Sorry, no credit for buying us
a roll of Scotch Tape.
We love parties!
Curious Blend would be happy to attend your party or corporate
function. And, we could sing there, too!
