Me for Queen aka Mary Erskine is inspired by people and their stories. Growing up feral in rural Fife/Scotland in a big old house near the sea, years of classical training together with a Blues guitarist for a father make for an interesting mix of Soul and Folk, drawing comparisons to a range of artists from Regina Spektor to Carole King, Kate Bush and This is the Kit.
Of her latest single, Jessica, released on Seahorse Music, Folk Radio UK wrote, “The combination of rich poetic lines and one of most beautiful, emotive voices I’ve heard in a long time make Me for Queen stand out in any crowd.”
She has enjoyed support from BBC 6 Music, BBC Scotland (single of the week on Janice Forsyth’s Culture show for Slow Train) and BBC Wales. Jessica was also included in one of Spotify UK’s most-listened to playlists, “The Most Beautiful Songs in the World”.
The last year has seen her play two headline UK tours, including sold-out shows at London’s Paper Dress Vintage and the Sound Lounge.
Her new full-length album Loose End was released in Summer 2018, which you can find here: https://meforqueen.bandcamp.com/ and listen to on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/5HIBZdQxI2yK1xeIs069n7?si=dClFv3UXQF69vzkJ30XbaA
