50 Shades of Blue was originally a duo consisting of bassist/vocalist Christine Webb and guitarist Jim Seely until late 2017 when it became a trio with the addition of drummer and former Papa Juke band mate Dan Crecco. Though Seely admits playing as a duo made them better musicians, especially when keeping time, the talented Crecco adds dimensions beyond belief with his unending funk-centric New Orleans, Washington DC gogo, Mozambique, swing, clave and rhumba beats, as evidenced by 50 Shades’ outstanding sophomore effort. As a result of Crecco’s groove-oriented presence, Seely has more flexibility to develop his extended string-scorching solos and Webb is able to do her best singing yet.

Jim “Doc” Seely and Christine Webb began playing together with Papa Juke in 2013 as guitarist and bass/lead vocalist, respectively. In 2015, Christine and Jim formed 50 Shades of Blue. Playing in a duo not only forced us to take our playing up another notch, it gave me more of a chance to develop our songwriting skills.

In May of 2015 we were finalists in the Colorado Blues Society International Blues Challenge.. And in August of 2015 we won the Mile High Blues Society International Blues Challenge and represented them at the 2016 International Blues Challenge in Memphis. This was both a great career and confidence booster! Also, in the summer of 2015 we recorded our first album.

In 2018 we added Dan Crecco (also from Papa Juke) on drums and percussion. Dan has added a whole new dimension to our repertoire. We can do things rhythmically that we couldn’t do before.. more funk and New Orleans roots type music. We have a truly democratic approach to song writing and song arrangements. Everyone contributes in their own way and everyone has a chance to shine. It makes for a very dynamic and creative blues/funk trio. In 2019 we recorded out second album (“Don’t Call Me Baby”) which later won the Mile High Blues Society self best-produced CD of 2019. One of the songs from the album (“Roll the Dice”) also won a Colorado Music Business Organization (COMBO) award for one of the top 20 best original songs in 2019 ..across ALL genres.
