Sirsy (stylized as SIRSY) is an American rock duo from Albany, New York consisting of husband and wife Melanie Krahmer (vocals, drums, piano, melodica, flute) and Rich Libutti (guitar, bass). During their live shows, Krahmer also plays bass on a keyboard with her drumstick and Libutti plays bass pedals with his feet.
In addition to touring the United States, Sirsy has been the opening act for artists including Brandi Carlile, Grace Potter, Maroon 5, Blues Traveler, Collective Soul, Joan Jett, The Smithereens, Cheap Trick, Vertical Horizon, Lifehouse, Fuel.
The name Sirsy came from a childhood nickname of Krahmer, whose sister called her "sirsy" instead of "sister" or "sissy"
