    Artist History
    Formed in early 2000 by singer Maria Cristina Fantini and guitarist Devon Wells (both York University music undergrads). In Blue River began as a duo performing at folk clubs in and around Toronto. They were well received as much on the merits of their melodic genre-crossing songwriting as their eyebrow raising technical proficiency. Jazz drummer and African/South Indian percussionist Curtis Andrews entered the fold for several months in 2001 but upom graduation from York University returned to his native Newfoundland.lending his considerable talent and experience to the up and comers. In Blue River's first album is available via mail order from their www.inblueriver.com website.
