Anything of a Blessing
Live in Brooklyn NY
Madeleine McQueen is a songstress with a quietly captivating and powerful presence.
A California girl who was uprooted and moved to Upstate New York as a teenager, she developed a talent for flying under the radar. Ungrounded, isolated, and torn between the two coasts, McQueen grew keenly observant of the world around her; disconnected and yearning for connection- she found a home in songwriting. Sneaking lyrics into her high school English department, led her to the stage, which became a place of solace. Taking great influence from the Laurel Canyon and Hudson Valley music scenes, like the coasts she grew up on- her lyrics are deeply personal, her presence is commanding and surprisingly grounding for someone who has spent most of her life in a nomadic state. So has blossomed Madeleine McQueen. Chronically underestimated for her initially shy demeanor, a light switch turns on when McQueen walks on stage, commanding the attention of a room with grace and authenticity.
