Why this name?

Band History:
While on stage, Stefanie Seskin feels it is her mission in life to bring a smile to everyone's face.
Seskin is the lead singer of blue number nine by night, computer geek in glasses by day. She is actually shy and quiet.
But for a decade, Seskin and band have entertained audiences with their high energy shows, sexy choreography, beautiful vocal harmonies and intelligent, often funny lyrics.
Set to a mix of funk, rock, soul, R&B and jazz, Seskin's lyrics address empowering topics - speaking one's mind, showing love, not putting up with b.s. and other similar themes, she also talks about some silly, goofy stuff which annoys people who take life too seriously.
The band has opened for CHICAGO, THE AVERAGE WHITE BAND and has toured the East Coast and Midwest.
