Who is BluCrush?
AmyBlu: (Lead Vocals, Dynamite Entertainer!) You might be familiar with AmyBlu from her cabaret duet show which has worked extensively throughout the Hudson Valley since 2018. Renown as a sultry jazz and torch singer with a visually striking act, her cabaret shows feature costume changes and hysterical audience interaction. She brings that bawdy “diva” sensibility to every BluCrush performance!!
Max Mayer: (Guitar, Vocals) I’ve been AmyBlu’s duet accompanist since 2018. I’ve come to know Amy’s performance style as only a long time collaborator can.
I also tour colleges nationally and US military bases internationally as a solo act “The Travelin’ Max Show” (since 1992). I endeavor to bring a lifetime of performing experience to each BluCrush show.
Sharon Siodmak: (Drums) Sharon started playing drums relatively late in life. She had already established herself as a solid drummer in a few Hudson Valley bands before co-founding BluCrush. Her nickname in BluCrush is Sunshine because she' s always full of joy & gratitude! Yet, we are are the ones who are lucky to have her as not only our drummer, but the band’s driving force! Her impeccable timing and attention to all performance details helps keep the show tight and energetic!
Adrian Morgan: (Bass) Adrian recently moved to the Hudson Valley from New York City. He currently works with a few bands in the area and as an engineer at the legendary mastering studio Sterling Sound. Over the past two decades, he’s played in bands from Boston to NYC. Adrian is an absolutely masterful bass player!
How did BluCrush begin?
Since 2018, I’ve had the privilege of being the guitarist/accompanist for the wonderful torch singer AmyBlu. Together we’ve performed at dozens of restaurants, lounges, wine bars, breweries, private events and performing arts stages throughout the Hudson Valley. I’ve watched her win over unsuspecting audiences and turn them into adoring fans everywhere we go.
In 2022 Amy suggested the idea of putting together a rhythm section. With a bass and drummer, we could expand our repertoire to include some of our favorite heavier rock and classic dance cover songs. We began working with drummer Sharon Siodmak and bassist Adrian Morgan and we immediately knew this was going to be something spectacular!
