In the mid-90′s Queue Up was a musical force to be reckoned with. With its dark lyrics, distinctive audio demeanor, emotionally disturbed imagery, slinky horror-struck guitars, diamond-cutting-glass vocals and over-the-top stage theatrics it was one of the strongest draws around. Its success included a widely distributed CD—Possession, frequent touring, and a slot at Lollapalooza. When the band dissolved, it was on good terms with itself and its public. Over the years, many fans have remained true to them, even in the band’s physical absence. Now, years later, Queue Up is back. Guitarist/Writer Dennis Yurich and Vocalist/Writer Ali Garrigan (who was Hernan in the band’s original inception) have rejoined to bring on a newer, leaner, more visceral incarnation of the darkly enigmatic, vivid Gothic/Industrial band that was…

Ali Garrigan

Vocalist. Ali is a long-time professional actress and singer, who, when not performing in Queue Up, is seen frequently onstage in and around the Cleveland area. Her most recent role was as Mrs. Lovett in the deliciously dark and creepy Sweeney Todd. Other roles have included Delilah Strict in Zombie Prom, Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Show and Yitzhak in Hedwig and the Angry Inch (in which she also understudied the title role.) Before joining Queue Up in the 90’s, Ali had performed with several other punk/goth/industrial bands.

Dennis Yurich

Guitarist/vocalist, served as Musical Director and guitarist for Hedwig and the Angry Inch. He has played guitar for Vanity Crash, System 56, Verdanzen and The Times.
