From New York City, Abby Jeanne and the Shadowband release a marigold 7″ that echoes 60s girl group soul and garage rock grit into a modern voice. A-side Queen Bee is a bold declaration of independence and self-power, with the narrator rejecting control and asserting dominance in love and identity. In contrast, flipside Baby Come Love Me explores vulnerability and longing, capturing the push-and-pull of a hesitant romance where desire persists despite emotional uncertainty. In the end, it’s Abby Jeanne’s powerhouse vocals, equal parts raw emotion and commanding force, that leave the deepest impression here, carrying both tunes with striking authenticity.

Queen Bee b/w Baby Come Love Me is out digitally and on vinyl 7″ through Food of Love.
