Romantic and bright, 'Queen Bee' is one of Matt Maltese's most catchy releases. Rosy spots of fifties Americana make it easy to imagine this love song playing at a prom, while bolts of indie guitar bring things firmly into the present day.
Without doubt a summertime tune, 'Queen Bee' comes at star-spangled lovesong writing from several angles. You can really hear the D'Addario fingerprints on this: instrumentals could pass for a Lemon Twigs original.
A part of a new Madhouse EP, each of the six songs on this new August release were self-produced by Maltese at home.
On 'Queen Bee', Maltese said: “It’s a song about the notion of finding ‘true love’, and being doubtful yet persistently and annoyingly hopeful. It’s a song that sort of speaks to your future lover with equal parts cynicism and soppiness.”
Madhouse Tracklist:
1. Little Person
2. Queen Bee
3. Hi
4. Madhouse
