About Queen Porter Stomp

Queen Porter Stomp conjure up a  unique kind of mangrove swamp magic. Drawing on the serpentine and muddy currents of the Hawkesbury River, their sound swirls somewhere between a racous New Orleans street parade and the smoky haze of a late-night speakeasy. In a feet-stomping, skirt-twirling, dance floor frenzy, Queen Porter Stomp send you a blaze of horns and a swinging rhythm section with a banjo sharp enough to cut through a moonless night – all held together front and centre by Crystal Barreca’s honey like voice. 

 

From Woodford to Falls Festival, Queen Porter Stomp have built a reputation for music that celebrates brass-soaked swing and river-born rhythm. At the heart of this celebration is song writing rich with sweet harmonies that uniquely captures the ebb and flow of love and life on the river, pepped with the grit and bustle of Sydney’s Inner Wesr.

Formed in 2015 from the embers of the Crystal Barreca Band, QPS bring an energy to the stage that is both joyful and seductive and pays homage to influences such as Norah Jones, Seirra Ferrel and Tuba Skinny.
