Curt was born on September 19, 1958 in Bertha, MN to Keith and Jeanette Inwards. He graduated high school in Detroit Lakes, MN and joined the Army out of high school. He served in the 82nd Airborne, then with the Army National Guard for many years. He worked as a mechanical engineer prior to changing occupations to follow his true love, music.
