Curtiss
Liner notes
Compose a country song about Curtiss, Wisconsin, a small village born from the logging camps and railroad tracks. Sing about the old Laabs Cheese Factory, the muddy streets of the past, and the hardworking folks who built a life among the white pines. The tune should have a steady, resilient rhythm that honors the town's pioneer spirit.
