Chuck crull
lead vocals
acoustic guitar



I started singing at a very young age and got my first guitar when I was 9 years old. Since then, I have had many influences, such as Ronnie Milsap, Garth Brooks, Waylon Jennings, and Scott Hudnall. I started Blue River Band in 1994 and since that time I've had the priviledge of playing with some of the finest musicians that Indiana has to offer. We have played all over the midwest, including opening for many national acts over the years. Most importantly, I have met the love of my life in Blue River Band, my wife Renee, who fronts the band with me. We are excited to see what the future holds! Until then, I'll continue doing what I love to do......entertaining the crowd.




renee crull
lead vocals



I started singing at an early age, at church, and tried the Nashville scene when I was about 18, entering many contests and finding out what a tough business that the music industry is. I shifted from singing to writing, and eventually found myself in the Colgate Country Showdown contest. It turned out to be the biggest win of my life, because it was there that I met the Blue River Band and the love of my life, Chuck Crull. He has taught me so much about performing and entertaining. I get to perform with my best friend and sing our amazing songs. It has been an amazing journey in the Blue River Band!
