King Princess: Our New Queen
Okay, so maybe I’m a little late to the bandwagon with this one, but after seeing her in concert, I have become obsessed. King Princess is cool, funky, and most importantly, real. Her music has a refreshing sound, with blends of rock, pop, and indie genres, and her vocals and “cool-girl” attitude are unparalleled. In an industry populated by somewhat homogeneous pop records, she takes her own route and does so with confidence.
Seeing her in concert gave me a whole new perspective, too. On stage, she is so captivating, but without gimmicks. The whole concert, she danced (of course sang) and just had fun, occasionally playing the piano or the guitar while doing so. Her presence was always unassuming, approachable, and yet stunning. She is edgy and entertaining, but not at all intimidating. I was absolutely amazed.
I would highly recommend checking out her music, especially some of my favorites:
-
Upper West Side
-
1950
-
Prophet

Hit The Back

You Destroyed My Heart
