Queen of France: “She’s Got it Down to a Science” / Show Monday
Queen of France are a local quartet consisting of Iver Hillman, Mark Madison-Kennedy, Marshall Baltzell, and Nik Prenevost. They play indie rock/pop of a jangly, hook-friendly variety, but with hints towards more unconventional aspirations. They recently released a single The Wasted Numbers, consisting of the titular track as well as B-side “She’s Got it Down to a Science.” Personally, I prefer the latter tune, which I feel like I can hear shades of idiosyncratic influences along the lines of Devo and the Talking Heads. You can stream the track below and check out the band this coming Monday at the Turf Club where they will be opening for Fever the Ghost. — Jon
