About Crush

Founded in Boston, MA in June 2011, Crush has been New England's premier tribute to the Dave Matthews Band for over 14 years. What started as a passion project among dedicated musicians quickly grew into the region's go-to act for that unmistakable '90s DMB energy—drawing heavily from the legendary "Big 3" albums (Under the Table and Dreaming, Crash, and Before These Crowded Streets) while weaving in fan-favorite post-2000 hits.

Over the years, Crush has brought the timeless sound and infectious spirit of Dave Matthews Band to countless stages across New England—from packed bar gigs and college socials to outdoor festivals, corporate events, and special celebrations like birthdays, graduations, and weddings. With experience across all kinds of venues and sound setups, the full band consistently delivers high-energy performances that capture the crowd, young and old alike, leaving everyone singing along and wanting more.

In addition to the full-band experience, core members Brett and Matt offer an intimate acoustic duo option that faithfully recreates the soft, soaring vibes of Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds' legendary early-'90s performances. Their dynamic sets blend mellow sing-along ballads with upbeat jams, incorporating popular DMB tracks alongside '90s classics, rock favorites, today's hits, country, originals, instrumentals, and spontaneous improv—perfect for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, private parties, or any laid-back gathering.
