Pride-06-Makana-72x400

Makana Morab was Cuir Bleu’s bass player from June 2006 until March 2008. Originally brought on board to run our sound, Makana became an integral part of the band, keeping the rhythm mellow and the energy high! He left the band to complete his Sound Engineering degree at Pyramind in San Francisco, and we hope he’ll come back to play with us when he can!

Severin joined the band in march 2004. A talented guitarist, he added a rock undertone and his own brand of guitar commentary to Cuir Bleu’s live shows. With the band for two years, Severin now lives and plays on the East Coast - but may show up for future gigs...

This shot of Severin with Kalib is from the studio shoot Cuir Bleu’s Slip Away EP.

Mark Ungar filled in on lead guitar for the 2005 Folsom Street Fair gig and also at Cuir Bleu’s Limited Edition CD Release Party. An extremely versatile musician, Mark plays with celtic rock band Avalon Rising and recently performed with the group Crooked Family in the acclaimed Bay Area rock opera “Thanatics”.

You can find more info on Mark by visiting More Moose Music.

Gray, our itinerant violinist, lives in switzerland and has been known to appear for sessions when in the neighborhood. a virtuoso musician, gray is also a good sport - allowing us to dress him in fetish wear for this 2003 video shoot without (major) complaints. the transformation was quite intriguing!

Johnny Target has go-go danced for Cuir Bleu at gigs ranging from Club Shadowplay to the Folsom Street Fair. He also spent several years dancing at San Francisco’s bondage-a-go-go.
