Who is Sky Blue?

Well, we aren't kids. We are boomers who have been playing music our whole lives. We are not trying to relive our youth or bring back the past. We believe we are in one of the most creative periods of our lives, writing, recording, and performing new music every month.

We are not a bar band or a garage band. We have been there and done that - 'nuf said.

We are Christians and our music reflects that point of view, but we are not a praise band or worship band. Our goal is to entertain you. Praise and worship music has a different purpose.

We started out as a Christian Blues Band, but even though "blues" has a big palette, we soon realized that that title was too confining for what we do. "Family-friendly blues-rock" seems sufficently broad, but it still doesn't quite express our music. We sort of like "Christian Rockabilly Blues" but, we are open to suggestions.

Here's what others have said:

My husband and I loved Sky blue last Saturday at the Black Creek Coffee House in Leawood, Kansas.  The band featured a little bit of rock, a little bit of country, folk, & bluegrass.  Some Christian themes sprinkled in with some audience participation certainly added to the feel.  The band enjoys each other and their audience and one can tell they have a passion for what they do.  For a nice, laid back, enjoyable time I recommend catching them at their next gig for your listening pleasure!"
Linda M.- Leawood Chamber of Commerce.

"Sky Blue is one of the best bands that I have come across, both in my life and in the Coffee Shop realm.  Their style of music is not only refreshing and professional, but it attracts the listener with anticipation and satisfaction.  Their performance is geared for family as well as the individual.  You will never go wrong with this wonderful band, and we found that out for sure when they played at Oasis Coffee Bar, so I highly recommend Sky Blue for any kind of venue." Rick Bell, The Oasis Coffee Bar
