[DID NOT ATTEND: November 6, 2026] Queen of Jeans
This week’s Free at Noon was announced as Michael Hampton, but when I was at the Richard Thompson Free at Noon last week, Mike V. said that this week’s Free at Noon would be Queen of Jeans.
I was always kind of dismissive of their name (not sure why) and for some reason I thought they were scrappy and punky. But I couldn’t have been more wrong. Described as indie sweethearts, after listening to the album, I find that this bio is spot on
their sound has always been soft around the edges but explores feelings that are anything but. As their sound has developed, they’ve refined a signature built around dreamy guitars, adventurous instrumentation, crushing lyricism, and one of the most underrated voices in modern indie rock: vocalist/guitarist Miri Devora. With guitarist Mattie Glass and bassist Andrew Nitz, Queen of Jeans are effortlessly timeless but still of-the-times, and continue to be one of indie’s most consistently compelling bands.
This blurb is right, Miri’s voice is gorgeous!
I was just bemoaning how I had missed them last month and really wanted to see them. I’m not sure I would have gone to a Free at Noon (such a pain) for them, but the question was moot since we would be out of the country anyhow. But i do hope this gives them a bit more exposure,
