          Like their musical contemporaries, Queen City Station make roots rock ' n roll sliding down a warm path towards country and wondrously loud enough to be never be considered tame. Like Springsteen, they shine a light on better days in a nowhere town. Like Whiskeytown and Lucero, Queen City Station opens their heart, chest open, without blinking and pours the contents of their lives together, into a solution of beautiful words and melodies with flashes of yesterday, the present and the future. Wildly original with their hat tipped towards their friends and musical inspirations, Queen City Station is ready to take the stage while you take a spot at the bar or in the crowd to listen, feel and love.
