Zydecrunch

What is Zydecrunch? Good question. Brought together by long-time friends Mike Lynch and Steve Olson, Zydecrunch was formed simply as an excuse to dabble in Americana before it was hip to do so. Taking our cues from the sounds of New Orleans Rhythm n' Blues, Cajun and Country two steps and waltzes, Creole struts, the Blues sounds of days gone by and even a little Rock and Roll from time to time, Zydecrunch has become the mixed up pot of gumbo that it is today. On any given night it is not unlikely to see our group switch gears from some crazy swamp-funk to a laid back Country swing tune to whichever way the wind blows. We like to have a good time playing great music no matter what the situation calls for. Be it layed back shuffles or hard-driving zydeco boogies, Zydecrunch strives to play music that people will enjoy. Interspersing a wide array of cover material with some choice originals creates an exciting, unpredictable show in the sense that the crowd will never know what they are going to get themselves into. The one thing that is always certain is that we will do our best to present a quality show that will bring people back for more.

Based out of Lansing, MI, Zydecrunch is comprised of guitarist Steve Olson, Tahmineh Gueramy on fiddle, Mike Lynch on accordian and Hammond organ, Jason Strotheide on bass guitar with the group being rounded out by drummer Bob Bryan. We are available for house parties, weddings, theme parties, parole hearings, barn raisings, bar mitzvahs and just about any place else that we’ll fit into.
