Blue Moon Marquee is a Gypsy Blues band born of the wild rose foothills of Alberta, Canada. They currently make their home in an island shack on the coast of the Salish Sea in British Columbia. A.W. Cardinal (vocals/guitar) and Jasmine Colette (vocals/bass/drums) write and perform original compositions. Artists such as Howlin' Wolf, Memphis Minnie, and Django Reinhardt are deeply infused in the soul of their music.

With passionate performances and smouldering onstage chemistry as their trademark, they deliver an infectious mix of early blues, jazz, country, and popular songs.

Colette commands the upright bass and brings the swing with her feet on drums all while singing harmonies. Cardinal’s distinctive thick and smoky vocals barrel out like a raging bull while his guitar crackles with the swinging energy of jazz-tinged blues.

Their new album Bare Knuckles & Brawn has topped the Earshot Charts in both Jazz and Blues! You can take it home with you on Vinyl or CD.
