The living legend of Queen Bee
Queen Bee formed in 1998 after Karen Neal and drummer Terry Bradley left the band Thrall. With Karens' 4-track full of written song ideas, young blood Mike Kish was soon recruited on guitar. Making an image "Bigger than Life" and getting spoiled by every magazine in Detroit, Queen Bee were press darlings and hated by every band that copied them! With the band's 1st single released on Alternative Tentacles Records, a self-released 5 song cd, and a sky-rocket to fame came the need for management and alot of frustrations. Karen was soon left with nothing but an album's worth of unrecorded songs and unfulfilled destiny. Karen decided to carry the torch alone as Queen Bee in search of new drones! Over the years, different line-ups emerged. Various credible musicians had swarmed the Queen's hive, awaiting the chance to be groomed for royalty, which included guitar or drum lessons and a glamorous make-over! (Check out the Drones page!) While Queen Bee was without a line-up, she kept the press' eye by re-inventing herself as a fashion designer, show host, make-up artist, fetish-model, hip-hop dancer, burlesque performer, digital artist, webmaster and advice columnist! Making personal appearances as the legend she has become, the Queen thrives on her celebrity status and will one day become a household name! On the musical end of things, Queen Bee has been happily re-united with her original drummer Terry Bradley, and has finally recorded her upcoming cd aptly titled "Girl On Top"! Co-producing and overseeing the mixing process, her tunes are still in the works. With the lead guitar work of Joey Mazzola (Detroit Cobras, Sponge), and additional guest vocals of Jason Wrobel and Brian O'Blivion (Trash Brats), Queenie hopes to finish this masterpiece by the end of 2003! Two tracks have already been released on Sleazegrinder Records. The new "rawk" version of "Hot-lot", along with sexy shots of the Queen grace the "Cock 'n' Roll" compilation. And the upcoming "Snake Oil Super Charm", which is a tribute to Zodiac Mindwarp, will feature a killer, country-fried punk version of "Untamed Stare" that's sure to knock you on yer friggin' ass! So get down on your knees and submit to the Queen, for one day she will "rawk and rule" your world!Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes, anywhere if the price is right!
I live for the audience! There have been many special moments, but when my skirt rode up, the audience went wild! Good thing I was wearing a thong!
