Los Angeles-based pop rock outfit KingQueen has long been an exciting band in the music scene since their debut in 2010 with the single “Luv Drug.” Over the years, they’ve earned a stellar reputation with a string of well-received tracks, an EP and a full-length album.
Their originality and contribution to the music industry have earned them a spot on the 2023 and 2022 Music Connection’s HOT 100 list, attesting to their unique offering, superb musicianship and thrilling songwriting that’s struck a chord with audiences across the USA and beyond. The band has also been highlighted on multiple platforms such as MTV, LOGO TV and OutAt TV, while, their energetic live performances have seen them light up stages including The NAMM show, American Music Awards and the Main Stage at San Francisco Pride among others.
They’ve opened for renowned acts like Steel Panther and Quiet Riot and performed at iconic venues like The Whisky a Go Go, The House of Blues, The Viper Room and The Troubadour. Their ability to blend fun, sass and depth in their music makes them a fascinating and truly original prospect in today’s musical landscape.
Their latest release, “That’s Why She’s Hot,” is a perfect showcase of KingQueen’s unique sound that blends playfulness with pure rock edge and sonic grit. Penned as a celebration of individuality and self-expression, it’s a pop-focused rock anthem that encourages listeners to embrace their uniqueness and reject societal stereotypes.
Kicked off by a blend of crunchy guitars and dark synth tones, the steady beat brings in the commanding vocal performance to craft an enthralling sound that pulls you in before launching into a biting chorus brimming with angsty attitude and empowering lyricism. With an energising rhythm and vibrant rock arrangement, the expressive and powerful vocals hammer home the song’s message to deliver an epic outing cut with bold keytar leads, storming guitars and pounding drums.
The accompanying music video, starring American drag queen Manila Luzon, presents a fun yet poignant commentary on the dangers of judging a book by its cover. Directed, edited and produced by AJ Prager, the video offers a cinematic visual pairing to perfectly match the intensity and energy of the song, resulting in a sensational audio visual spectacle.
