The Workman's Club, Tuesday 31st December

The Workman's Club Presents, Pillow Queens – New Year's Eve Party.

Pillow Queens formed in winter 2016 with the immediate release of their demo EP Calm Girls, which sparked a successful string of UK and Irish dates & festival appearances. Their second EP State of the State made its way onto BBC 6 Music's playlists, with Steve Lamacq calling them “deceptively infectious, with sharp hooks and sharp nails”. The lead single Favourite picked up lots of great support on the UK's national airwaves, including plays on BBC Radio 1, BBC Introducing, Radio X and Amazing Radio. After two more UK tours, and two sellout hometown gigs, the band soon found themselves more and more comfortable on bigger stages, opening for the likes of American Football and Pussy Riot, capping off summer 2018 with a stadium performance opening for Idles and Future Islands.

This quick momentum led to the band working with Mercury Prize nominated producer Tommy McLaughlin for their next single Gay Girls – which received a nomination for the RTÉ Choice Music Prize song of the year, as well as International airplay on NPR's World Café and KEXP. 2019 saw Pillow Queens venture into mainland Europe, with an appearance at this year's Eurosonic Festival, followed by an impressive string of European tour dates supporting Soak.
