QueenB writes musical '#15 Turtle' - set for release on 15 June

09 June 2024 - 0 Comments

QueenB is an always evolving Russian/Kiwi artist.

Soon after quitting her House of Travel job, she jumped into a three-year singer-songwriter degree at Ara Music Arts. Her final year project was dedicated to writing a rock musical called You Are The Boss!

As the title suggests, the musical is about taking control of your life and making life-changing decisions for yourselfYou Are The Boss is an inspiring story of a Russian immigrant woman chasing her dreams, while battling with the past traumas of domestic violence, suicidal thoughts and cultural prejudice.

The first musical number #15 Turtle will be released on 15th June 2024. The idea is to further work on the rest of the musical and release one single at a time with a number attached to it, so once all 20 songs are out, the listener can piece the whole story together like a puzzle.

#15 Turtle - is a song about hiding under a shell. It’s a duo between the main character Veronica Solas (QueenB) and her Imaginary Friend (Maria Flores).

QueenB takes lyric writing very seriously, she believes in honesty and openness without holding back! “When I first wrote Turtle, I was so ashamed to read the lyrics to anyone, it felt so vulnerable to admit that I had voices inside my head. I was worried people would think I was mad. But the more I wrote about my mental health struggles, the more I felt free and cured. Writing became my therapy, I could finally find my voice, amongst many voices that I had in my head, and choose the one that was helping me to come out and shine my light vs the one telling me no one gives a shit”.

Musically, you can expect a rock opera with a Middle Eastern twist and a bit of a gothic metal vibe.
