O’Donnell Retires From Curb Records

After 17 years in the business as Curb’s West Coast Regional and helping achieve the label’s 300th No. 1 record, Joe O’Donnell is hanging up his hat and retiring.

“Joe’s incredible dedication to Curb Records and amazing talents helped us achieve our 300th number one record and made our 50th anniversary a very special time. He will be deeply missed, but the gifts he shared with us will always be treasured. We hope that his retirement brings him great joy and good health,” said Mike Curb, Curb Records Chairman.

“I’m such a lucky guy to have spent my career in the music business. It’s been a very interesting road from the coal regions in PA! Many thanks to all the wonderful folks I met and worked with along the way! The past 17 years seemed to have gone by in a flash! It’s been a pleasure to have been a part of Curb Records’ fifty plus years as a label,” remarked O’Donnell. He can be reached at [email protected]
