The Queer Icons Ensemble is a multi instrumental ensemble drawing on the rich history of LGBT+ music. From Cole Porter to Chappell Roan, we will adapt and perform a wide range of songs while also learning about the history and societal impact of artists from the Queer Canon. The ensemble aims to be a safe, welcoming space to singers and instrumentalists of all types and abilities. Whether you are a member of the LGBT+ community, or you just want to learn more about this unique cultural legacy - come slay with us!
Members should have basic proficiency on their instruments, both reading and ear based musicians will be welcome.
