Queenie & Hank Album Tour (Garden Stage Matinee)

Step back in time and let your ears drink in the sweet, sun-dappled sounds of Queenie & Hank — a dynamite duo dripping in rhinestones and soaked in ’60s charm. With golden harmonies and a smoky twang, they channel the sultry swagger of Nancy & Lee and the tender fire of Dolly & Kenny, while offering something undeniably fresh.

“Queenie” is Eloise Thetford, a rising star in Melbourne’s live music scene with a voice of pure gold. “Hank,” aka Henry Wagons, a pioneer of Australia’s indie-country movement, adds his fireside baritone and visionary edge. Together, they twist and turn through a psychedelic folk turbine, emerging from the darker corners of music and storytelling with a sound that feels both timeless and brand new.

What began as a chance meeting at the 2023 APRA Awards — with a sprinkle of mutual admiration — soon turned into a collaboration that felt fated. Their voices met like puzzle pieces in Hank’s Trentwood Studio, and in a wild, organic stream of creative force, they forged a full album of original duets that hover in the spirits of the past while reaching boldly forward.

Think modern Nancy & Lee or Nick & Kylie — but uniquely Queenie & Hank.
