“The String Queens are adding soul to strings and inspiring the next generation.” (CBS Mornings)
Based in Washington, D.C., TSQ has been described by D.C.’s leading news network WUSA9 as “school teachers by day and concert performers by night.” TSQ’s dedication, service, and innovative work in the field of music education has been acknowledged with various accolades. Most recently, they have entered a partnership with the Save The Music Foundation to present a series of professional development workshops for performing arts educators around the country on “Social Emotional Learning in the Arts Classroom” and “Trauma-Informed Centered Arts Classrooms” as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In August 2022, TSQ released its third album titled “RISE,” which sonically addresses the problems that are currently plaguing the world with unique arrangements of timeless classics by Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Richard Smallwood, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, and more.
The String Queens will be joined by Aaron Hardin on piano, Romeir Mendez on bass, and Carroll Dashiell on drums.
