Track of the Week – Queen Adreena : Jolene

Posted by vultuk

My selected track this week is one I discovered a few years ago. It is a cover of a very well known Dolly Parton song called Jolene and the band is Queen Adreena. To save a lot of rewording I will throw in the following information taken From LastFM

Queen Adreena are a band from London, England. Described at various times as “art, punk, metal, rock or alternative”, QA are difficult to categorise. But there is an undeniable primal, sick swagger and thump in everything they do, a homeopathic drinking of ills and light in dark places. Formed by iconic vocalist KatieJane Garside and guitarist Crispin Gray, they had previously collaborated in the celebrated but short-lived band Daisy Chainsaw.

Queen Adreena has fought long and hard with the “music industry” and struggled to survive but, with Welsh speaking bassist Nomi Leonard completing the line up, they continue to excite and challenge audiences everywhere they go. There is truly no one quite like them.

Now that you have heard a little about the band, here's the song. I hope you enjoy it! Click the link below to listen now!
