McQueen are...

• Leah Duors - vocals
• Hayley Cramer - drums
• Cat de Casanova - guitar

Sick of the attitude free world of manufactured crap-girl pop? Welcome to McQueen – a fresh sounding Brighton based all female rock act who combine sassy looks and glamour with an ability to rock at a level that makes their age and gender insignificant. They’ve been called ‘a female Foo Fighters’ but that’s only half the story. They’ve got the sleaze of Guns'n'Roses, the attitude and fury of The Distillers, fused with the alt-rock sounds of The Smashing Pumpkins and Dave Grohl’s musical legacy.

Formed late in 2003, they immediately set about playing live across the UK, including a string of dates with fan and comrade Roxy Saint. With their first single ‘You Leave Me Dead’ due to hit the stores at the end of September to coincide with a thirteen date tour with UK rockers The Holiday Plan, McQueen are a band who aren’t afraid to get out there, get in peoples faces and do it.
