██│ With five albums in the last seven years, Cru will release Riffin' The
██│ Blue this coming February 2023. The album is produced by Tas who, in
██│ addition to his tried-and-true studio stalwarts, enlists solid help
██│ from a few others, most notably Mike Zito (courtesy of Gulf Coast
██│ Records) and renowned keyboardist, Bruce Katz. Zito puts his guitar
██│ stamp on two songs - the albumÆs opener/title track and on the closer,
██│ Memphis Gone. Katz contributes his world-class talent on piano and
██│ organ to ten of the albumÆs eleven songs.
██│
██│ Tas Cru is truly a blues eclectic who refuses to let his music be
██│ bound to just one blues style. With a repertoire of over 100 original
██│ songs from multiple albums and dozens of crowd-pleasing classics, this
██│ seasoned singer-guitarist-songwriter is truly one of the most unique
██│ of bluesmen plying his trade today. Cru was honored with his first
██│ Blues Foundation Blues Music Award nomination in 2018 for his album,
██│ Simmered & Stewed. That album and the two that followed (Memphis Song
██│ & Drive On) were all recipients of the Syracuse Area Music Awards (the
██│ SAMMYÆs) for best blues recordings. His 2021 album, Broke Down Busted
██│ Up was nominated by Blues Blast Magazine (Best Acoustic Blues Album)
██│ and the Independent Blues Awards Modern Roots Album, Modern Roots
██│ Artist and Content Creator Award.)
██│
██│ Tas Cru is based out of Central New York and performs in multiple
██│ formats ranging from solo acoustic to a six-piece backing band. He
██│ sings and plays a wide variety of guitars - at home on either
██│ electric, acoustic, resonator or cigar box and is known to sprinkle in
██│ a bit of harmonica from time to time. Tas is a Delaney Guitars (Austin
██│ TX) endorsed artist and is signed to Subcat Records, Syracuse NY. Cru
██│ is also a recipient of the Blues Foundation (Memphis TN) Keeping the
██│ Blues Alive Award in recognition of his blues education programs that
██│ he presents while touring.
