Biography
Get ready to stretch your imagination and wiggle your funny bone ‘cause Andrew Queen is Too Tall! Simple, silly lyrics get everyone singing right along with new takes on old camp favourites. His wacky action songs and original fairy tale tunes get kids giggling and grooving! People big and small can’t help but sing along with his high energy, big laughs, and tall tales . . . Andrew dishes up one super-sized order of fun!
The laughter is infectious as Andrew takes us yodelling through avalanches in the Austrian Alps, tromping through the muck of the Okeefenokee Swamp and high-tailing it from a great big bear in north Ontario. The kids will be singing his tunes long after the show is over, sticking around like roasted marshmallows on little paws after a summer campfire.
Andrew has sung and played his guitar, jug & kazoo to Festival audiences from coast to coast. He has performed at Winnipeg Folk Festival, Hillside, Red Rock, and Red Skies. With Jughead, Canada's original motorgrass band, he's also played Northern Lights Borealis, Milk International Children's Fest, Festival by the Sea and Vancouver Folk Festival.

Instrumentation
Andrew sings and plays his accoustic guitar and throws in a bit of jug & kazoo here and there.
On bigger stages the Crocodaddies back him up with Luke Mercier on fiddle & banjo, Tim Hadley on the doghouse bass, Dan Oullette on harmonicas and Nik Tjelios on mandolin. Everybody sings along of course.
