On Friday, I received the usual heap of pitches and press releases emailed in, yet, I also went through all the new releases on Spotify. I’m glad I take time doing this every week because, as sure as eggs, I pick up on a track I love, and it turns out to be the one I am never contacted about. This week, King Princess<\/strong> with the song “For My Friends<\/strong>,” has me instantly hooked. Due to their record deal with Zelig Records<\/strong> (Mark Ronson<\/strong>) (let’s face it, my chances of getting mail from Mark are very slim).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mikaela Mullaney Straus<\/strong> (King Princess<\/strong>) took off in a blaze of glory was runner up in the BBC Sound of 2019<\/strong> poll. The debut album “Cheap Queen<\/strong>” received equally positive reviews. Recently, they collaborated on a remix with M\u00d8<\/strong> of “Head on Fire<\/a><\/strong>” by Griff<\/strong> and Sigrid<\/strong>. The release took them in more of a pop direction than they had previously entered into. After hearing “For My Friends<\/strong>, I understand why the decision was made to drop the remix <\/a><\/strong> before King Princess started to commence unleashing their new music. (It’s a teaser of the new direction King Princess<\/strong> is going in, maybe). In the instance of “For My Friends<\/strong>,” definitely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\"Listen<\/a>\n\n\n\n
