Queen Kwong
Label: Instant Records
since circa 2009
Queen Kwong is an American Indie rock band founded in Los Angeles, California. The band was founded by multi-instrumentalist Carré Kwong Callaway, the band's sole singer and songwriter who was discovered at age 17 by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. Queen Kwong usually plays as a three piece line up (guitar, bass, drums).
"Bad Lieutenant" is the debut EP by LA based band Queen Kwong. It fuses the best traits of punk and grunge with the contrasting delicate breathy vocals of lead vocalist and guitarist Carré Callaway. Carré trashed the initial studio recordings and locked herself in a bathroom with a laptop. Recorded in single takes, she captured the moment with all the flaws and sonic “imperfections” that make this EP a truly sincere and rare piece of rock n’ roll!
