WHO ARE THEY? 

A Manchester trio who, in a recent interview, cited Fugazi and The Cranberries as two of their biggest musical influences. Of course, if you've had the pleasure of hearing Crying Beauty Queens' music, those disparate influences make total sense – here's a band whose appeal lies in their deft understanding of contrasts, blending the visceral and the genteel to create a unique sound of their own. Their third and latest single Stupid, released last month, perfectly encapsulates this sonic worldview. While dramatic tension is provided by the driving, emo-infused guitars and feverish percussion, singer Jordan Price's beautiful vocals – which evoke the sensuous lilt of the late, great Dolores O'Riordan – provide a lovely counterpoint. A band trading in big sounds and big emotions but never neglecting that all-important sense of intimacy, Crying Beauty Queens have all the essential qualities to connect with a mass audience.

Stupid Single Release and Official Music Video 

Crying Beauty Queens have released their third single on 31/05/2019 after the success of their last two singles. Their song 'Stupid' is now available on all major music platforms and the OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO can be found on YouTube. The track was written about a relationship in which one person is always put down. It discusses feelings of being talked about in a negative way as well as constantly receiving hateful comments. Although this song seems depressing, towards the end the person realises that they're not stupid and they don't deserve to be put down. The lyrics in the final chorus 'who's stupid?' work as a turn around point where the person has had enough and fights against the comments. As the song progresses, the instrumentation builds and all the anger and frustration is finally let out in the last section, with the last line of the melody almost acting as a sigh of relief as the person lets go of all the anger.

 

Big things are coming for the young band!

After The Fire Release 

After the success that Crying Beauty Queens' first single 'Taking Over' generated, they followed this up with their second single release on 3rd November 2018. Their recent single 'After The Fire' portrays a mixture of anger and annoyance that is conveyed in the build up of the instrumentation throughout the song. With the clever writing, developed production and unique style, they have produced a song that is interesting and compelling to listen to.

'The musical style remains the same but feels much deeper and richer than first single 'Taking Over'. 10/10' - WildSpiritz Magazine

'Singer songwriter Jordan Price is a talent to look out for. Her second offering 'After The Fire' is a melodic, soulful rock' - Salford City Radio

Taking Over Official Music Video 

Due to the amount of success Crying Beauty Queens received from their first single launch, they decided to create their first ever official music video for the song. After weeks of working on storyboards and plans, they finally got to film and capture all of their ideas, creating a tense and atmospheric music video to fit with the emotional song. Released on 17th September, the video has already proven to be a hit!

'Taking Over gives an independent but adventurous sound that acknowledges its limitations but creatively broadens its soundscape, telling a common story in a spooky and engaging matter' - Design A Gig.

The official music video for Taking Over can be found under the 'videos' section on this website and can also be found on YouTube.
