LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - Last month, Lubbock lost one of its long-time musicians, Freddie Lee Curry.
Curry was a founding member of the Lubbock-based funk band Element. The band posted on Facebook that Curry âgained his wingsâ the day after Christmas.
Family and friends, including Element vocalist, Chicago John, say they remember the bass player and vocalist for his gentle heart and ability to make people laugh and smile.
âWell everything that funk is about, Freddie had it. He was a funky bass player. He was a great guy. He was fun to be around. He always liked to make people laugh. He was a good family man. He loved his family and also he also loved the band Element,â John said.
