Pillow Queens have shared another taste of their upcoming new album ‘Leave The Light On’, in the shape of Hearts & Minds which explores the band’s personal insecurities which have been brought to the fore as their popularity increases.
“‘Hearts & Minds’ is about experiencing the feeling of being a teenager again,” explains singer/guitarist Pamela Connolly. “The insecurities about body image and ability when it comes to being a musician that’s seeing themselves recorded and pictured, as well as commented on. It deals with the idea of imposter syndrome when it comes to an industry that favours the male form and the insecurity of not being able to be effortless with your movements.”
