2024 Juno Award-winner <a href="spotify:artist:6bVy3C1kw2FPWgpLcoBWk1" data-name="Blue Moon Marquee">Blue Moon Marquee</a> writes and performs original compositions influenced by anything that swings, jumps or grooves. A.W. Cardinal (vocals/guitar) and Jasmine Colette (vocals/bass/drums) have played for a vast gamut of crowds at jazz clubs, Lindy Hop dance halls, folk venues, blues haunts, hospitals, prisons, markets, motorcycle joints, dive bars, and prestigious festival stages.
Colette not only commands the upright bass, but also brings the rhythm with her feet on a custom foot drum kit, all while singing in her signature honey-dipped tone. Cardinal’s distinctive and soulful vocals barrel out like a raging bull, while his guitar crackles with the swinging energy of jazz-tinged blues.
The result of nine years of rigorous touring in Europe and North America, is a distinct energy and style from this acclaimed duo. Carving a path through blues, jazz, jump jive, folk, country, swing and Indigenous soul with an authentic spirit, their sound does not idle easily in one certain category. It stomps and struts through the wilds, conjuring a blend where <a href="spotify:artist:0Wxy5Qka8BN9crcFkiAxSR" data-name="Howlin' Wolf">Howlin' Wolf</a> tangos with <a href="spotify:artist:5Z1XZyEFY0dewG8faEIiEx" data-name="Django Reinhardt">Django Reinhardt</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:7gS1Yv0RynyzKX5ICtKIhS" data-name="Ernest Tubb">Ernest Tubb</a> shoots firecrackers with <a href="spotify:artist:03cwCzIWQ8BRmXjGPDAL04" data-name="Cab Calloway">Cab Calloway</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:2WGyRLosdDgGJTLijIPpNC" data-name="Memphis Minnie">Memphis Minnie</a> throws dice with <a href="spotify:artist:3VBpsrUi2vV7Uj87ONHu7Z" data-name="Screamin' Jay Hawkins">Screamin' Jay Hawkins</a>.
Their gift is bringing it all together without anything sounding out of step. They collect the roots and smoothly braid them with lyrics that often touch on the underbelly of society, woven with elements of Indigenous storytelling and poetic cadence.
