Queen City Hot Club plays American and European standards in the Gypsy Jazz style created by Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grappelli, and their legendary "Quintet Hot Club de France". Rooted in 1930’s Swing, Queen City Hot Club also incorporates contemporary Gypsy sounds popular in Europe today. This fiery acoustic music has started to make inroads in North America - and now in Vermont! Melodic and improvisational with a driving rhythm it appeals to listeners of all ages and musical tastes. Queen City Hot Club has been playing extensively in Vermont for the last couple of years and has recently undergone an exciting new change in line-up.

Based out of Memphis, Tennessee, Askew has substantially established herself throughout the Southeast, United States, and has organized and promoted her own small tours since her teens. She now continues to serve as her own agent on a grander scale, booking her shows and traveling vigorously throughout the U.S.
"If Tom Waits had a singer/writer daughter in Memphis, it would be Askew with her gallery of lost souls on the graveyard shift. Gutsy, bluesy, and a bit boozy, she quietly sings with jagged languor and a skewed spirituality. Discreet percussion, guitar and, on occasion, wistful lap steel notes sagely frame her rough-hewn sophistication."
- Bruce Sylvester, Sing Out! Magazine. May 2011

We would like to say that we make really cool luxuriant music. Also we have said that we are influenced by floating dust and we and we hear our music as enveloping black holes, the mouth of a basking whale and the plankton's anticipation, lazarus taxons, waking in the afternoon, big enveloped , and grotto-heavens.
