Mac Curtis : HAPPINESS LIVES IN THIS HOUSE

In 1954, in Weatherford, Texas, Mac Curtis formed a band with two classmates, Jim and Ken Galbraith. They played at school events. During one of these events, their show was shut down due to sexually suggestive on-stage movements. A year later, they were offered a deal with King Records, which released their debut single, IF I HAD ME A WOMAN.

Soon afterward, Alan Freed heard the group and invited them to play on his Holiday radio special. Curtis returned to Weatherford to finish school in 1957, then became a disc jockey in South Korea while serving in the military.

With the resurgence of rockabilly in the late 1960s, Mac released seven singles on Epic. HAPPINESS LIVES IN THIS HOUSE rolled up to number 63 on the Billboard Country chart.
