The String Queens

The String Queens are rewriting the rules of what a string trio can be. With electric stage presence and a sound that swerves effortlessly from the concert hall to the culture at large, TSQ have become one of the most celebrated ensembles of their generation—praised for bringing “authentic, soulful artistry” to every stage they touch. Their performances fold classical mastery into the worlds of R&B, hip-hop, jazz, and spirituals, creating a genre-bending experience that feels both refined and radically alive.

Known for collaborations with everyone from Beyoncé at the 2021 Presidential Inauguration to the Kennedy Center, Carnegie Hall, and the NFL, The String Queens have built a reputation for turning familiar music inside out—revealing new emotion, new rhythm, and new fire. Expect soaring arrangements, unexpected twists, and signature TSQ warmth that instantly draws audiences in.

At the HOPE Center for the Arts, TSQ expand their sound with our immersive acoustic design—every bow stroke, every harmony, every drop of groove landing with hyperreal clarity. Whether they’re reimagining Bach, uplifting spirituals, or unleashing their genre-crossing originals, The String Queens deliver a concert that’s soulful, cinematic, and full of joy.

Powerful, virtuosic, and deeply human, this is an evening for music lovers of every stripe. Come experience why The String Queens are called “the future of strings”—and why audiences across the country leave their concerts feeling moved, energized, and inspired.
