Bio

“Put a knife up to his boner, cut him” with those nine words a trend was born and Scene Queen
(along with the genre name she coined, “Bimbocore”) was introduced to the world.
Fast forward a year later, Scene Queen has taken over the world and the Bimbocore movement
continues to grow. Boasting sold out tours in the US and the UK, festival appearances at Slam
Dunk and Reading/Leeds, multiple magazine covers (including Kerrang!, Rock Sound, and
Metal Hammer), and the prestigious Heavy Music Award for Best International Breakthrough
Artist, Scene Queen has continued to champion female artists in heavy music and tackle
controversial issues that plague the scene.

With her debut album, Hot Singles In Your Area, Scene Queen hopes to expound on the idea
of reclaiming your sexuality, confidence, and feeling empowered to express your true self
regardless of what anyone will think. “I hope listeners are able to feel safe in their skin with this
record like I have,” Scene Queen extends, “Something about not caring what anyone else thinks
has done wonders for my confidence and I hope I’m able to spread that and empower others
along the way.” The result is an album that is everything Bimbocore has become known for,
ramped up by 100.

While Scene Queen has become a divisive and polarizing figure that is the embodiment of
female empowerment and sexual freedom; she has built a reputation as someone who holds
herself to no boundaries or genre. Leading the scene in pink high heel boots and mini-skirts in a
black t-shirt world, she’s as comfortable writing songs about cutting off mysogyny’s manhood as
she is screaming obscenities about everyday frustrations into metal breakdowns that quake
inside your soul. But it is her tongue-in-cheek wit that sets her apart from other artists in the
scene. With nursery-rhyme choruses and pointed ad-libs, Scene Queen cuts deep into the
hypocrisy of the patriarchy with a smile that wounds on contact. On her song “18+” Scene
Queen tackles the sexual misconduct that ran rampant in the scene that she grew up in. Not
afraid to speak the truth, the song ripped shockwaves in the industry and forced people to listen.
Songs like “MILF” – a take on the country genre in a way only Scene Queen could – serves to
solidify the idea that bimbocore is any and all genres. “The track came about from sitting with
friends and asking ‘what if we took all the most gatekept genres (country and metal) and put
them together’,” Scene Queen explains. The result is the most ambitious, cleverly-wrought,
earworm that is as fun as it is chaotic and genre-bending.

While Hot Singles In Your Area tells the story of Scene Queen coming into her own and
enjoying being single, young, and free, the album reflects a broader meaning as well. The
album explores and pays homage to the early internet era as well as all the sex workers who
have laid the foundation for Bimbocore to exist. Scene Queen adds,“The album is about having
fun with yourself while reclaiming your sexuality.” As an outspoken advocate for LGBTQIAA
rights and a fearless crusader against misogyny, body-shaming, and sex-shaming, Scene
Queen proves that you can name every song after a different category of pornography and be
valiantly sex-positive while doing a two-step into a metal/hardcore breakdown. Bimbocore forever.
