Band Bio

13 Curves is a high energy, in-your-face 80's style rock band from Syracuse, NY. Formed in 2018 by guitarist and founder Jim Cerio, the name 13 Curves was chosen to honor a long-time CNY legend of the Ghost Bride of 13 Curves. Over ninety years ago, a brutal, terrifying car accident occurred on Cedarvale Road, just ten miles southwest of Syracuse. Since that fateful day some nine decades ago, it has been said that the road, which is known better by its nickname, “13 Curves,” has been haunted by the souls of those who died in this tragic accident. 

13 Curves has grown steadily, gaining a strong following and an impressive portfolio of venues. Playing venues from Alexandria Bay to Cortland, Oneida to Seneca Falls, 13 Curves will entertain fans young and old alike. Playing music from Styx, Journey, Heart, REO Speedwagon, Cheap Trick, KISS, Lynyrd Skynard, Poison, Foreigner, GnR, Toto, Warrant and more. Lead singer Heather Polacek, puts on a huge show with a huge voice and presence. Central New York music veterans, Jim Cerio, Rob Modugno, Jodi Marvin and Mike Skowron  tops it off!

The band has played Tioga Downs,  The NYS Fair, Brennan's Beach, Average Joe's, Skiff's-ABay, Colloca Winery,  along with most other music venues in CNY.
