QUEENIE RELEASES DEBUT ALBUM NEW MOULT

Naarm/Melbourne based singer-songwriter Queenie is unveiling her eagerly awaited debut album New Moult. Her complexity, vulnerability and emotional depth shines through as she bares her heart and soul to us across eleven powerful tracks.

Featuring her highly praised 2024 releases “Not Divine”, “Mama” and “Everything Sucks”, New Moult introduces us to eight brand new tracks. Delving into themes of heartbreak, family dynamics, coping mechanisms and self image, she dismantles her experience navigating the world as an imperfect young woman. 

Queenie shared, “I feel as though this record is a representation of my rebirth into writing, solo especially. We were heading into virtually a year of lockdowns and for the first time since I was about 13, I had unlimited time on my hands. I’d just split up with the love of my life after 10 years and was incredibly displaced. I’d been set adrift in the universe for the first time in my adult life. I decided after an especially long session of wailing and wallowing that I should pick up my tiny acoustic guitar and at least try to make use of the sudden abundance of inspiration bubbling away in my head. On a sonic level I wanted the songs to sound nostalgic - with a sense of longing. A sprinkling of the 80’s; like perhaps you’d already heard them. Heartbreak is something human beings all over the world can relate to and I think that familiarity is what has come to fruition throughout these recordings. I never really write with a purpose or an idea, it kind of all falls out at once and I tend to find or recognise meaning in the lyrics later down the track.”

New Moult is available everywhere now.
