Tas Cru is truly a roots-blues eclectic who refuses to let his music be bound to just one style. Downbeat Magazine notes that he is one of the most unique of root music musicians plying his trade today. 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 roots-blues musicians 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 SAMMY’s) for best blues recordings. His 2021album, 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 will be performing at The Fallout Shelter as a six-piece band that includes Mary Ann Casale (guitar/vox), Tom Terry (bass/vox), Phil Dilorio (drums/vox), Kevin Barry (keys) and Marty Phillips (sax).
