A teen found his dad’s unreleased song from the ’70s and shared it with the world. Now it has millions of streams.
Throughout his career, Curly has primarily made rock music, which is why his son was shocked to hear his voice on a disco track.“I did it a long time ago. Don’t worry about it,” Curly told his son, adding that he wrote the song with Mark Olson,. Curly recorded the track in 1978, along with two other disco-inspired singles, which were never released because he couldn’t land a record deal.
To challenge his dad’s nonchalant attitude about the song, Zach decided to share the tune on TikTok — without his father’s permission.“I thought it should be out there,” said Zach, a sophomore studying music at Arizona State University. “As an artist myself, I know how much soul goes into just one idea, let alone a finished track.”
He excitedly sprinted up to his dad at their home near Sedona, Ariz., to let him know that his long-lost song had gone viral and that thousands of strangers were demanding its official release.“In less than 24 hours, the TikTok has 300,000 views,” Zach enthusiastically explained to his father, who had never heard of the platform and responded with an earnest question: “What’s tic tac?”
