They disclosed they had no organ player in mind and Cressey introduced himself and persisted in suggesting himself until he got an audition and got the gig. He began by playing just Thursday games, but now plays day games and Sunday games.

Cressey plays keyboards in the award-winning San Diego-based band The Mighty Untouchables. he has recorded one solo album in 2017, Cali Native, with 20 local musicians. He has played music for video games including MLB 14 The Show, writing both original songs and other audio cues for the game.
