Pillow Queens have returned with defiant new track ‘Be A Big Girl’, their first new music since their realignment as a 3-piece and it’s a whopper, snarling affair which sees the group continue down the heavier path established on their most recent and best album ‘Name Your Sorrow’.

‘Be A Big Girl’ sees the group fighting societal expectations of what a woman should act like. “I think people expect ‘being a big girl’ to mean keeping your chin up, not making a fuss, and politely ignoring the fact you’re being shoved towards the door. For us, it’s the opposite. It’s staying exactly where you are when you’re told to leave, making a fuss, and taking up more space in the process.”

“Living in Ireland, making music here, and not hopping on the first flight out is already an act of stubborn optimism. And yeah, sometimes you’re crying in Lidl or planning a better life in Australia, but at least you’re still standing. That’s the kind of ‘big girl’ we’re interested in being.” 

‘Be A Big Girl’  was produced and mixed by Daniel Fox (Gilla Band, Sprints, Lambrini Girls) at Sonic Studios in Dublin and mastered by Jamie Hyland (Mhaol, Gilla Band).  Be A Big Girl’ arrives as Pillow Queens are set to join US indie heavyweights Lord Huron on their European tour.
