Prima Queen Share New Single ‘Chew My Cheeks’
Prima Queen, an all-female indie/alternative rock band fronted by songwriting duo and best friends Louise Macphail (Bristol, UK) and Kristin McFadden (Chicago, USA), have just shared their brand new single Chew My Cheeks, an upbeat indie-pop track out now via Nice Swan Recordings.
Produced by The Big Moon, Chew My Cheeks beautifully displays the subtle touches and lyrical flourishes that marked Prima Queen out as pre-pandemic press favourites. I am loving their smooth, yet confident, vocals and lovely harmonies which soar beautifully over the upbeat production. Chew My Cheeks is a song about having an unhealthy obsession with someone and is wrapped around a polished production packed with gorgeous guitar riffs nicely intertwined with catchy percussion and subtle horns. The song is a captivating match between their ethereal yet gritty style with vulnerable and nostalgic storytelling, creating an overall warm atmosphere perfect for a laid-back day at home.

On the new single Prima Queen said,
Chew My Cheeks is a song that centres on an unhealthy obsession with someone who is slightly out of reach. We wrote it in lockdown last year when we were remembering what it was like to idealise people you don’t know and to use them as a form of escapism. We ended up watching The Matrix in isolation together around the same time and were really inspired by the world in which the movie creates.
