Nachgefragt: Interview with Killer Queens/ Sweden


Who is in the band and what are you doing in your normal lives? What solo-projects do you have?

 

Just for now it..s only me(Emmy Lidgren) on guitar/backvocals and Juline Thorgren, guitar and leadvocals :) We are two girls who like to play in this band and we like to hang out with our friends and we both still go in school. Juline is the one who has her own myspace with some of her own songs ;)

 

 

I saw that you are looking for two new members for the band. What happened?

 

Yes, thats correct! Both our bassplayer and drummer jumped of the band... very sad, but now we're looking for new members! Soon we will find ´em!  ;) So we are not giving up our songs and our dream to stand on stage!

 

 

This is really heavy rock you do. How is the music connected to your souls and thoughts?

 

Juline writes the lyrics and sometimes I help. But for us every song has it‘s own meaning, connecting to us and our life right now :) 

 

 

What are your lyrics about? What was the best lyric you wrote and why?

 

Almost all songs are about love, jealousy, teenage life and things like that... one of our best lyrics is a song called "Joey want‘s me". We have even won a musicfestival called "Värmdöfestivalen" with that song :) The lyrics is about love of course and trying to let go...

 

 

Why don‘t you sing in swedish?

 

We have some songs on swedish, so we are doing our songs in both english and swedish, it‘s fun to do it on both languages :D

 

 

What influences you writing the songs?

 

Real life, things we are going thru in our days :)

 

 

There are not many all-girl bands on this planet. What do you think are the reasons for this?

 

We hade no idea! It‘s very sad that it is so, but we want to show everyone else that girls also can! :D

 

 

With what bands do you share the stage?

 

Heh, mostly boy bands... but it's very mixed :) We only shared the stage with maybe one girlband before :) But the music of the bands we shared the stage with was everything from rock to hip hop ;)

 

 

Sweden is western europe is the free world... what is limited in Swedens Rock-/ Indiemusicscene?

 

No idea x)

 

 

What future do you see for you and your band?

 

I hope that we never quit and keep this up, play with different bands, travel around do other music stages and show our songs to more musiclovers!
