This week’s PBS Feature Album is Queenie's debut, New Moult. Queenie’s complexity, vulnerability and emotional depth shines through as she bares her heart and soul across the eleven tracks of this impeccable release.
Featuring her highly praised 2024 singles ‘Not Divine’, ‘Mama’ and ‘Everything Sucks’, New Moult explores heartbreak, family dynamics, coping mechanisms and self image, as Queenie 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."
Tune in all this week to hear tracks from New Moult, and PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on vinyl: simply email your name and membership number to before midnight Sunday September 1. Please note vinyl giveaways must be picked up from the station in Collingwood.
