After teasing her new track in May, Scene Queen’s single, “L-Shaped Couch,” is officially here—ushering in her musical style she lovingly calls, “Bimbo At The Disco.” With soaring pop vocals, groovy basslines, and steamy lyrics, Scene Queen is stomping into this new era in her go-go boots, and shining like a disco ball—and we are so here for it.
Scene Queen took to social media to share more on the track and its sonic influence, sharing, “I wanted to make a slight genre shift in what feels like a very fitting time to do so. With the current political climate, I wanted to pay homage to a music era that I feel was ahead of its time. The disco era was dominated by marginalized people. Black artists were at the top. Queer artists were at the top. Women were at the top. It was an era where underground clubs were filled with people of all different races, sexualities, and backgrounds coming together to dance for hours.”

She continues, “It was dominated by groups that people were actively trying to silence. Yet, it was a genre filled with so much humor, joy, and light. And ironically, rock fans HATED it. I always try my best to push this genre into new directions, and although disco had rock elements, I’m hoping I can bring some new modern metal in as well. So with that, I’m starting this fun, new, collaborative, and crazy era with a little song for myself and my queer fans. About how my first queer encounter was as positive as one could have. I can’t wait to see where this new project goes.”
So, grab your florals on, and get ready to get down to “L-Shaped Couch.”
