Wesley Erwin "Mac" Curtis, Jr. (16 de enero de 1939 – 16 de septiembre de 2013) fue un músico de rockabilly. Nació en Fort Worth, Texas. Aprendió a tocar guitarra a los 12, ingresando a un concurso de talentos. Se mudó a Weatherford en 1954, donde formó una banda con dos compañeros de clase, Jim y Ken Galbraith. Tocaban en los eventos de la escuela, pero durante uno de ellos su espectáculo fur interrumpido por realizar movimientos con contenido sexual sobre el escenario.[1]​ El grupo siguió tocando localmente, y en 1955 les ofrecieron un trato con King Records, que lanzó su primer sencillo "If I Had Me a Woman".

Más tarde Alan Freed escuchó al grupo y los invitó a tocar en su especial de radio de Navidad en 1956. Curtis volvió a Weatherford para completar su educación y se convirtió en disc jockey en Seúl, Corea luego de unirse a la milicia.[1]​ Al retornar en 1960, siguió trabajando como DJ en el sur de Estados Unidos y lanzó otros álbumes. El de 1968, The Sunshine Man, alcanzó la posición 35 en las listas de música country en el país.[2]​ Como en la década de 1970 el rockabilly se hizo popular, comenzó a grabar con Ray Campi y firmó para el sello de Ronnie Weiser, Rollin' Rock Records. Su carrera despegó en los 1980s y 1990s. Más tarde fue elegido para Salón de la Fama del Rockabilly.

Murió el 16 de septiembre de 2013 debido a las heridas provocadas en un accidente de tránsito.[3]
