Madison Park Times editor Like many performers in the entertainment industry, the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent shutdowns stalled the careers of actor/singers Carly Marie Corey, Savannah Lynn and Noel Christine. Rather than wait for the theaters to open back up, however, the three performers decided to take charge of their careers by forming the electro-swing band, Fox Blush Trio. Corey and Lynn, both Seattle residents, initially started the band in May of 2020. The two friends agreed they wanted to do something positive with their musical theater backgrounds while they couldn’t perform on stage by recording songs, making music videos and releasing music.

The result was harmonious, and the trio launched their band under the name Blush Fox Trio. “It was kind of crazy because none of us had jobs, so we could really put all of that energy that we were putting into other things into creating this,” Corey said. An added bonus, she said, was their friends were also in the same situation, so they invited friends who were free to collaborate. They hired friends to dance in their videos and another to design their costumes. “Although the pandemic was horrible, it kind of opened up some opportunity for us to really get a head start,” Corey said. Corey is the songwriter and arranges the vocals and produces the music with her husband. They meet once or twice a week in Corey’s Queen Anne apartment to practice and rent space when they want to record or practice choreography. “I think we all, we’re at this point where we’re kind of taking control of our careers and building our own thing, which feels really fantastic,” Corey said. She said not only is the trio’s chemistry and “vocal blend” great, pivoting away from theater allows them more freedom. She said, as actors, a lot of their careers are decided by other people, starting with
