When this energetic and uber-talented family band takes us back in time with their nostalgic America’s Got Talent Audition, it’s impossible not to smile!
The Curtis Family C-Notes from San Francisco, California sings “I Was Made To Love Her,” which was originally recorded way back in 1967 by Stevie Wonder. But, the fun in their performance is less about the song and more about their stage presence!
AGT Judge Simon greets the group and comments on how fantastic they look. And, they do! All Curtis family members are dressed in bright colors, and none of their outfits match. Their eye-popping retro, hippie style is pure pleasure, and it seems like each family member is expressing themselves in their look.
The C-Notes are led by Dad and Mom, Maestro and Nola Curtis. Kid members include Zahara, Nile, Isis, Kiki, and Phoenix, from oldest to youngest. Each Curtis kid plays multiple instruments and sings, and they have personality galore!
Simon asks Zahara if all members of the family like the same type of music, and when Zahara responds, “Yes, sir,” Simon pretends to be a bit put out by the idea that his age requires a “sir.” Family members giggle and Zahara apologizes before Simon moves on to ask about the kids’ personalities.
Phoenix loves space and names her siblings’ instruments after the planets. Then, Kiki asks if Simon will give her guitar a similar name. He quickly chooses “Moon,” and is then razzed by fellow judge Howie Mandel for coming up with a name that’s not particularly other-worldy. It’s all good fun between the C-Notes and the judges.
When the performance begins, the Curtis Family does not disappoint! Isis gives the camera a peace sign and sets the beat for the song. Zahara, with braces and giant silver hoop earrings, sings first, and she is smiling ear-to-ear. Mama and Papa C jump in, and the family delivers a performance that is upbeat and joyful!
Their smiles, gestures, dancing, and facial expressions prove they are having a great time. The judges do as well, jumping up and giving a standing ovation to The Curtis Family C-Notes. Host Terry Crews has the last word saying, “That’s what we need right now—a little family!”
