Huey Cuff

About Me

Huey Cuff was born in New Jersey, in the middle of a brutal thunderstorm. Two hours into his mother's labor, a huge bolt of lightning struck JCP&L's Bergen County transfer station and cut all the hospital's power. Before the power could be restored and before the hospital's generators could kick in, Huey emerged from the womb, screaming out a tune he had written to the rhythms of the horrendous storm outside. Within two months, he had completed 4 country songs, one of which was picked up and recorded by Waylon Jennings. Huey continues to write songs to this day, peppering them with sharp social commentary and unforgettable riffs and melodies. His band includes Tony Montana on drums, Ron Jeremy on bass, Shayla Laveaux on rhythm guitar, and Marc Wallace on keys.
